Description
Kursens innehåll
Denna kurs utgör tredje terminens studier i judaistik och består av en metodkurs, en fördjupningskurs samt en uppsats.
På metodkursen får du en orientering om olika metoder som används inom religionsbeteendevetenskaplig, religionshistorisk och religionsantropologisk forskning och du kommer också att öva dig i att tillämpa några av dessa.
Parallellt läser du en kurs där vi bekantar oss med sionismens centrala tänkare och ideologer, vars texter vi läser i översättning och diskuterar. Fokus på denna kurs är lagd till åren 1880-1948, men vi kommer även att studera staten Israels historia och hur dessa ideologers tänkande genomsyrar dagens israeliska samhälle liksom frågor som rör kopplingen mellan sionism/nationalism och religion/messianism.
Kursen avslutas med ett självständigt arbete i form av en kandidatuppsats. Under kursens första hälft kommer du att börja samla material till uppsatsen varefter du under kursens andra hälft får möjlighet att ägna all din tid åt att tänka och skriva denna uppsats.
Efter kursen
Tillsammans med en kandidatexamen kan du efter kursen söka till masterprogrammet i religionsvetenskap och teologi, med specialisering religionshistoria och religionsbeteendevetenskap.
Included parts
- Method Course, 7.5 credits

Note!
This course is not open as a freestanding course next semester. It can be open for application within a programme or for students in an exchange programme. Please ask your academic advisor for information.
How to apply
Lund University uses a national application system run by University Admissions in Sweden. It is only possible to apply during the application periods: October–January for autumn semester and June–August for spring semester.
Extended application deadline
Sometimes the application deadline is extended for a specific programme or course. In these cases you will find the message "open for late application" by the programme/course information on universityadmissions.se. You apply with the usual application steps. As long as this message is showing, it is possible to apply, but late applications are processed in order of date, so it is still important to apply as soon as possible. Please note that if the programme/course does not have an extended deadline, it is not possible to apply late.
First or Second Admission Round?
All international students are encouraged to apply to the First admission round. This round takes place many months before the start of a semester and gives students the time they need to pay their tuition fees, apply for and receive their residence permit (if required), find housing, etc.
The Second admission round is an alternative for students from EU/EEA countries as they do not need a residence permit. Non-EU/EEA students will most likely not have enough time to obtain their permit before the start of the semester. However, even EU/EEA students are advised to apply during the First admission round, as some programmes can be applied for only in the January round. Also, this provides applicants with an admission decision much earlier, which is helpful in making decisions about their studies.
Tuition Fees
Non-EU/EEA citizens
Citizens of a country outside of the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland are required to pay tuition fees. You pay one instalment of the tuition fee in advance of each semester.
