Description

Judaistikens grundkurs är uppdelad över två terminer och kan läsas i valfri ordning och oberoende av varandra. Kombinera gärna kursen med halvtidsstudier vid Lunds universitet i modern hebreiska eller jiddisch.

Grundkurs I utgörs av två delkurser som båda går att läsa som fristående kurser. På första delkursen ges en grundlig introduktion till judisk historia och kultur där vi följer det judiska folkets historia från uttåget ur Egypten fram till modern tid med fokus på händelser, platser och personer som fyller en viktig funktion för judisk identitet och tradition. På den andra kursen riktas fokus mot judendomens kulturella och identitetsskapande sida genom studiet av komiska berättelser och vitsar som belyser olika sidor av judisk kultur och historia, tankevärld och identitet.

Kursen går att läsa såväl på campus och som på distans via internet. På campuskursen (JUDA12) kompletteras klassrumsundervisningen med lektioner och information via internet varför dator och internetuppkoppling är en förutsättning för att följa undervisningen i sin helhet. På distanskursen – som söks som två fristående kurser (JUDD31 samt JUDD32) sker all undervisning via internet. Examinationen av delkurserna sker kontinuerligt under kursens gång med hjälp av quiz och skriftliga instuderingsuppgifter.

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.
