  • Summer Learning and Lay Leadership Experience

  • For 10 months a year, YU undergrads dedicate their long days to studying a synthesis of Torah and Madda
    in the classrooms and batei medrash of the Wilf and Beren campuses. Under the auspices of the CJF,
    they have the opportunity to bring this wisdom to life through the Summer Learning and Internship
    Programs. Students will spend their days involved in high-level Torah study with prominent rabbis around
    the country or developing their professional skills in significant internships that will catapult their future
    careers. At the same time, they will be fully immersed in some of North America’s most exciting Jewish
    communities, learning with community members, giving shiurim and volunteering in local organizations.
