Majors
The Department of Near Eastern and Judaic Studies offers three majors to undergraduate students:
- Near Eastern and Judaic Studies (two tracks)
- Hebrew Language and Literature
- Islamic and Middle Eastern Studies (an interdepartmental program)
How to Become an Undergraduate Major
Students who wish to concentrate in Near Eastern and Judaic Studies meet with undergraduate advising head Jonathan Decter and are assigned a faculty adviser in accordance with their individual areas of interest. Together with their adviser, they develop a plan of study designed to fulfill the requirements of the major and to meet their personal interests and needs.
With the approval of the department, a limited amount of credit may be awarded for appropriate courses taken at other universities.
For complete information on the NEJS major, see the Brandeis University Bulletin.
