Bar-Ilan, Shaindy Rudoff Creative Writing Graduate Program The Shaindy Rudoff Graduate Program in Creative Writing in Israel is the only degree-granting Jewish

The Shaindy Rudoff Graduate Program in Creative Writing is a magnet for English-speaking Israelis, as well as Jews and non-Jews from around the world. The two-year Program, housed in the Department of English at Bar-Ilan University, offers an MA in English Literature with specializations in Literary Fiction, Poetry or Creative Nonfiction. Located on the outskirts of Tel Aviv and only an hour's bus

ride from Jerusalem, Bar-Ilan University enjoys a diverse student body. Students in the Program range in age from 21-71 and come from all over the world. Though the Program explores the long tradition between Judaism and writing, there are no agendas, only the pursuit of good writing. Our students and visiting writers often experience their time in the Program as a life-changing period. The Program organizes annual conferences and sponsors informal gatherings with writers in Jerusalem and Tel-Aviv.
