Bernard Revel Graduate School is committed to training men and women as effective teachers and researchers in Jewish studies. Its curriculum emphasizes the critical analysis of primary sources, the study of the methodology appropriate for a given discipline, and extensive readings in the secondary literature. The School encourages independent work and its expert faculty is available for guidance.

By means of classes, seminars, and individual consultation, students are guided toward the realization of their full potential as scholars. Courses of study lead to the master of arts and doctor of philosophy degrees.

The school’s location at Yeshiva University’s Wilf Campus affords stimulating association with several of the University’s other schools and affiliates, and provides easy access to the major resources of the institution.

Library and Research Facilities
Comprehensive research collections in Jewish studies at the Mendel Gottesman Library—numbering more than 200,000 volumes—Judaic CD ROM's, and access to online databases offer rich and diverse resources in support of the graduate programs. An experienced and service-oriented library staff with extensive expertise in the field assists students and scholars in all phases of research. Access to other major Judaica research collections is facilitated by the library?s membership in METRO and the New York Area Theological Library Association.
