Hebrew

Students learn to read, write, speak and comprehend Hebrew while also receiving exposure to elements of Israeli culture and society.  All courses incorporate cultural materials, media, and technologies. We also collaborate with the Judaic Studies and Middle East Studies programs at UT to offer additional courses related to modern Israel.

Learning Hebrew is fast-moving and fun. You’ll learn the Hebrew alphabet quickly, and the grammar is straightforward and systematic, built around three-letter roots. Hebrew can be useful for students in fields like computer science and political science. Israel, where Hebrew is spoken, is one of the world’s fastest-growing high-tech economies and an important player on the world stage.
