Where do you want to take your degree?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some students want to incorporate religion into their career and use the degree to pursue a career leading a synagogue, working in administration for a religious or social service organization, or working overseas with a mission-driven agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Others use the Jewish Studies degree for readily available entry-level jobs in business administration, marketing, nonprofit administration, human resources, arts administration, sales, or library support roles. As a general liberal arts program, our Jewish Studies degree can also be used to enter graduate programs in law, business, library science, museum studies, history, and more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flexibility of the Jewish Studies major also makes it relatively easy to pair with another major such as education, social work or psychology for careers in teaching, counseling, or social services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students should plan to build a resume before graduating &#8211; seek out internships and part-time jobs that can expose you to different career paths and help you network in the professional world. The resources available through the <a href=\"https:\/\/uwm.edu\/set\/\">Center for Student Experience and Talent<\/a> at UWM are available to all students. They help with resume preparation, career planning, interviewing techniques, career exploration, mentorship programs, and job listings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some examples of jobs our Jewish Studies alumni have held include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"uwm-c-list--border wp-block-list\">\n<li>Senior Program Officer at Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Operations Manager at Impact Mental Health<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Recruiter at Manpower Global<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Policy Analyst at Department of Energy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Development Specialist at Housing Authority &#8211; City of Milwaukee<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Events Manager at Jewish Museum Milwaukee<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Teacher at Jewish Community Center Chicago<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Operations Association, Wisconsin Historical Society<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Youth Educator for Christians United for Israel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Education Manager at Oregon Holocaust Museum<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A degree in Jewish Studies provides a multitude of options.
