Yeshiva University is a top-tier national research institution with the guiding vision that the best of the heritage of contemporary civilization and knowledge is compatible with the ancient traditions of Jewish law and life. On the undergraduate level, this is embodied in the dual curriculum under which students pursue liberal arts, sciences, and business in conjunction with comprehensive Jewish studies. On the graduate level, the university’s mission emphasizes the advancement of knowledge in medicine, science, law, social work, psychology, education, advanced Jewish and rabbinical studies and the moral dimensions and values that govern professional practitioners. Both are linked by a common quest: to ennoble students’ deepest human needs for purpose and discovery, and to enable them to transform their communities and society through meaningful action.
