Opis programu

At Spertus Institute, we embrace the idea that the wisdom of Jewish thought and the richness of Jewish experiences inform Jewish society and Judaism today. Our programs encourage personal reflection. Students grapple with Jewish ideas in the service of their personal, professional, and communal advancement.

Spertus Institute's Doctor of Hebrew Letters (DHL)  is designed specifically for in-service Jewish professionals, primarily rabbis, but may also be of interest to educators and communal service workers with extremely high facility-level classical Hebrew texts. It serves those seeking career enhancement, career change, and personal edification. Unlike traditional degree programs, each student in the program undertakes an individualized process of learning. The program demands academic excellence balanced with skill-based knowledge directly applicable to those who desire to make a significant contribution to Jewish life. Applicants must have a master's degree in Jewish Studies (or equivalent) and significant facility with classical Hebrew texts to be considered for admission.

Learning Outcomes

Students in the DHL program learn to:

Demonstrate skills in a variety of methodologies and approaches by conceptualizing and critically analyzing key ideas, practices, and issues;

Demonstrate skills in studying classical and modern Jewish literature, including Talmud, Midrash, Biblical and Talmudic commentaries, codes, and responsa, kabbalistic and Hasidic works, medieval Jewish ethical literature and pietica, and liturgies;

Trace historically, conceptually, and analytically a variety of issues, ideas, and practices through the corpus of classical Jewish literature;

Draw upon the resources of Jewish literature and historical experience to address issues and problems challenging contemporary Jewish life.

Course Requirements (54 quarter-hour credits)

Spertus Institute's Jewish Studies degree programs are offered on a quarter-term system, which allows for flexible and asynchronous registration and starts dates. As a result, course credit is granted in quarter hours (as opposed to semester hours).

Reading Courses (7 courses, three credits each)

Independent Study or Seminar Text-Based Courses (7 courses, three credits each)

Research and writing related to the Project Demonstrating Excellence (4 courses, three credits each)

Project Demonstrating Excellence

The Project Demonstrating Excellence (PDE) is not a traditional thesis but an applied, practical project grounded in traditional Jewish sources and intended to address current, setting-based issues. It is unique for each participant in the program and is primarily completed offsite, under faculty advisement.

Jewish Ethics

Jewish Law (Halakhah)

Informacje o uczelni

Spertus Institute for Jewish Learning and Leadership is guided by two truths: vibrant Jewish communities are learning Jewish communities and those great Jewish communities need great leaders. These truths inform everything we do.

Spertus Institute offers dynamic learning opportunities, rooted in Jewish wisdom and culture and open to all. These opportunities are designed to enable personal growth, train future leaders, and engage individuals in exploring Jewish life.

Graduate programs and professional workshops serve constituents in the Chicago area and worldwide through various onsite and distance learning options.

Public programs — including films, speakers, seminars, concerts, and exhibitions — are offered at the Institute’s Michigan Avenue facility, in the Chicago suburbs, and online.

We often hear from students and participants that their experiences at Spertus are inspiring and even transformative. That is by design because the Institute strives to offer thought-provoking content with real-world application, unparalleled resources, and a welcoming environment that encourages people to connect in an open exchange of ideas. This results in meaningful, important opportunities for personal and professional growth for constituents and communities.
