INSTITUTE FOR WOMEN
JEWISH SCHOLARSHIP
Students further their Jewish knowledge under the guidance of a faculty of Torah experts from a broad spectrum of Jewish scholarship and religious backgrounds. With this network of scholars and educators the students strengthen their Jewish identity, attending the many seminars, lectures and public forums that Midrasha provides and which in many cases are audited by the community at large. Options can range from the Mesivta program, which is designed for guided study of Jewish Law or Talmud in pairs, to the Reishit program, which enables students from secular backgrounds to focus on Jewish identity through familiarity with Jewish texts.
Additionally, Midrasha offers the prestigious Tikvah Fellowship workshop for exceptional students. The program addresses core issues on the Israeli public agenda through the prism of Jewish sources – a workshop geared toward building a high-level cadre of Jewish leaders of the future.
WORLDS
Taking into account the priorities of work, family, and academic study, Midrasha provides a program for women seeking to synthesize their spiritual endeavors along with worldly pursuits.
LEADERSHIP ROLES
Overall, Midrasha provides an open space to learn, expand and grow, coupled with schooling of the law and every angle of the law. Most women have never been offered this opportunity and so Bar-Ilan University is ensuring that all avenues of studies are offered to women from all walks of life.
