Biography/Organization History

Historical Note: Established in 1986, the William and Freda Fingerhut School of Education, a division of the Graduate Center for Education at AJU, prepares educators to create and articulate a compelling vision for Jewish education and apply the knowledge, skills, creativity and leadership needed to bring that vision to life. AJU’s Familian and Brandeis-Bardin campuses provide a natural laboratory for innovation, experimentation and integration of experiential and traditional education. Our two-year Master of Arts in Education (MAEd) and Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) programs combine classic and cutting edge educational theory with intensive Judaic study and practical fieldwork experience in teaching and leadership and management. We offer a full-time program as well as an evening program designed to meet the needs of working professionals. Students are mentored and taught by leading innovators, master educators and scholars in the field. A trans-denominational and warmly pluralistic environment is the hallmark of our learning community, drawing students from the full spectrum of the Jewish community from secular, to unaffiliated, to Reform to Orthodox.
