The Southern Ukrainian Jewish University, a joint project between the Odessa Jewish community and the Southern Ukrainian State Pedagogical University, is celebrating its second anniversary with an open house for prospective students and their parents.
With a curriculum including classes in Torah, Jewish traditions and Hebrew language, the program combines religious instruction with the standard requirements leading to a business degree. New program offerings include speech therapy and computer design.
Founded by Chabad-Lubavitch Rabbi Avraham Wolf, Odessa's chief rabbi, the project also offers its students full scholarships, free housing and a free kosher meal plan.
University Dean Yevgeniy Borinschtein reported that the institution expects a significant increase in enrollment for clases beginning this fall.
