Touro University is excited to announce the NextGen Chinuch Fellowship, funded by a private donor, geared to support and equip aspiring mechanchim from the Chabad community for a career in limudei kodesh teaching. This fellowship will be offering a limited number of generous scholarships to passionate and inspiring young men who enroll in a BA program at Touro’s School for Lifelong Education and upon completing their degree, pledge to teach in a co-educational Jewish day school in North America for four years. Participants who are selected will emerge with a fully accredited BA, with a focus in education, will participate in special seminars and gain some experience in a Jewish day school.
“This is an important initiative for the field and community. Touro University looks forward to helping make this a success,” said Dr. Breindy Stern, Dean of Touro’s School for Lifelong Education.
To be eligible for the fellowship, candidates must have a high school diploma or GED, have completed at least two years of post-secondary yeshiva, and be admitted to Touro University. The BA program, which will focus on courses related to education and pedagogy, can be completed in two years. For more information, please contact Dr. Briendy Stern
