Students will work on a research project that draws on their knowledge of Jewish Studies and helps them to develop a more sophisticated understanding of the field and its intersections with other academic disciplines. Students will be expected to keep a journal about their work as it advances, and to participate in regular discussions about their research with the class. The semester will culminate in a final research project.
