Israel Summer Programs
Join us for a powerful experience with the outstanding Pardes faculty. At Pardes, men and women of diverse backgrounds and belief systems encounter
the most compelling and challenging texts of Jewish tradition. Our students
are offered a unique experience of intellectual openness, rigorous textual analysis and
opportunities for personal spiritual growth.
Summer Program
Three weeks of dynamic, interactive study with students from all around the world. Experience how Torah and Talmud tackle contemporary issues in three specialty tracks: Jewish Leadership, Conflict Resolution & Social Justice and Spirituality. You'll also tour Jerusalem and meet special guest speakers.
Executive Learning Seminar
The Pardes Executive Seminar is geared to business executives, professionals and community leaders who wish to combine the experience of visiting Israel with an immersion into the study of classical Jewish sources.
Day School Novice Teachers' Curriculum Workshop
Aimed at new Judaic Studies teachers of grades 4-12, this program combines
professional development with Judaic learning in Jerusalem. The cost of
tuition, housing, and most meals is provided by a grant from the Mandell L.
and Madeleine H. Berman Foundation, as well as by contributions from other
donors.

Student Comments
"I loved my month at Pardes. All of my teachers were receptive and welcoming
of questions. I came here to be intellectually stimulated and to have my
first serious contact with Hebrew texts. I got both. I'm going back to
Princeton and recommending the program to interested students."

"The experience surpassed my expectations. I came here expecting to delve
deeply into Jewish texts and emerge having learned a little bit more about
what my tradition teaches. Instead, I found myself being forced to ask the
question - what does it all mean? I am grateful for that opportunity. Not
only did I learn texts and wrestle with big questions, but I also learned
from teachers, who are powerful role models."
