In 2008, the Centre for Jewish Studies was created to recognize and build on these remarkable achievements. Today the Centre offers courses at the undergraduate and gradu

ate levels in archeology, art, history, languages, literature, performance, philosophy, political science, religion, and sociology. Judaism is one of the fountainheads of Western culture. In addition, students from a wide range of backgrounds choose Jewish Studies because the Centre's courses and programs:
• Foster an understanding of the past through a highly critical engagement with Jewish and other traditions
• Explain the possibilities of cultural renewal in the face of rapid change
• Explore the challenges and opportunities of minorities within majority cultures
• Offer insight into Canada’s remarkable diversity and Canada’s place in an increasingly global society
