Welcome to the Hebrew program at Case Western Reserve University!

עברית@ Case

The Hebrew language has been a vital instrument of human expression for thousands of years, from ancient biblical texts to novels and the internet.  Hebrew at Case Western Reserve University offers elementary, intermediate, and advanced language courses, with an emphasis on modern forms of communication and culture.  Small class settings allow students to improve their skills and encounter a variety of texts, including Israeli poetry, music, film and other media.  Advanced courses taught in Hebrew and in English translation illuminate Hebrew literature in relation to World Literature and other global trends.

Funding is available to help support Hebrew language study at CWRU and abroad, for both academic year courses and summer programs.

Come and learn how to create letter press prints in Hebrew at the new Gutenberg Annex.
