THE HU ARMENIAN STUDIES PROGRAM

The Hebrew University Armenian Studies Program was founded in 1967. In recent years, under the leadership of Professor Michael E. Stone, it has grown into a thriving program, attracting many students from both within and outside of Israel. The program currently offers degrees at the Bachelor's, Master's and Doctoral levels.

Encouraging greater attendance, the program provides a number of fellowships: The Sam and May Rudin Foundation Fellowships allow Armenian priests to study at HU; four priests are currently learning under this fellowship. The Krikor Momjian Fellowships are granted to graduates of St. Tarkmanchats High School.

The Armenian Studies Program cooperates with community and academic establishments in both Jerusalem and Armenia. The program has close ties with the Armenian Patriarchate, Yerevan State University and the Institute of Archeology of the Armenian Academy.
