A Jewish university is so unique that its impact is almost indescribable. The place, the people, the programs, everything works to feed not only great minds, but also to drive innovation and strengthen our millennial identity, positioning ourselves as a unique institution within the Spanish-speaking Jewish community. During our first 28 years of existence, the UH has trained a new generation of students and teachers, passionate citizens who propel humanity forward and open new paths for development. However, just as we have exceeded expectations, the world has grown tremendously and the challenges too. That is why in Hebraica, we seek to capitalize on our knowledge and values to train the future leaders that our community and country require: bold thinkers and passionate educators, adaptable to change and committed to the complex problems facing our society. We are a community highly committed to academic quality and the development of people under the premises of Tikun Olam , which in Hebrew means, making our world a better place for all human beings. This is possible thanks to the commitment of our academics, collaborators and the support and encouragement of our community leaders and donors. The Hebraic University has a commitment to the future, not only of the Jewish community in Mexico and of our country, but also with the Jewish people and Israel. WE GREET YOU WITH A CORDIAL SHALOM!
