WHAT IS THE INSTITUTE OF TRADITIONAL JUDAISM (ITJ)?
The ITJ (also known as the “Metivta”) is the school of higher Jewish learning of the UTJ. The Metivta provides the Semikhah (Ordination) Program, the Beit Midrash Program, and Continuing Education for Rabbis. In addition, we offer, in cooperation with nearby Fairleigh Dickinson University, the world’s only Masters in Public Administration degree with a concentration in Jewish communal service.
