About American Jewish University

American Jewish University (AJU) is a private Jewish university in Los Angeles, California, United States. It was formed in 2007 from the merger of the University of Judaism and Brandeis-Bardin Institute. AJU's academic division includes the Masor School for Jewish Education and Leadership, and the Ziegler School of Rabbinic Studies, a Conservative Jewish rabbinical seminary. AJU is host to the Miller Introduction to Judaism Program, which prepares students to convert to Judaism and engages interfaith couples and families, as well as three think tanks: the Institute on American Jewish-Israel Relations, and the Sigi Ziering Institute for Exploring the Ethical and Religious Implications of the Holocaust and the Center for Policy Options. At its Brandeis-Bardin Campus, the university oversees Camp Alonim, Gan Alonim Day Camp, and the BCI Program, and also rents its facilities for events and film productions.
