Faculty teams from JTS and YIVO and other institutions are sent to Moscow each semester to teach the Jewish studies courses. RSUH houses a Judaica reference library of five thousand volumes in Russian, Yiddish, Hebrew and English for the use of students, faculty and the general reading public. Beginning fall, a unique elite track for high school students will be offered through Project Judaica in partnership with the Russian State University High School, a public magnet preparatory school, and the Lipman Jewish Day School in Moscow. This new program enables students to combine outstanding secular and Judaic studies, and at the same time guarantees their admission to Russian State University for the Humanities one of Russia s most selective institutions of higher education when they graduate. JTS, YIVO, and RSUH are currently engaged in a comprehensive search and survey of Jewish archival collections in the former Soviet Union.
Further guides are now in preparation.
The Russian State University for the Humanities is located at 6 Miusskaya Ploschad, Moscow.
