For students seeking a deeper understanding of Jewish Studies through a doctorate, the Frankel Center has created strong relationships with coordinating Ph.D. granting departments and programs. Doctoral students engage Frankel Center faculty as informal academic mentors and formal dissertation advisors. These students may qualify for financial support (tuition support, summer research funding, etc.) in the form of a fellowship or stipend. This enables students completing the Ph.D in partnership with Judaic Studies to pursue a Graduate Certificate in Judaic Studies. The Certificate allows students to acquire an interdisciplinary grounding in Judaic Studies as a secondary field. With a reasonable time commitment, students can make themselves considerably more desirable in a job market that continues to become more competitive.
If you have any questions about the Certificate, please e-mail our Student Services Coordinator
