Remepy—a combination of “remedy” and “therapy,” or the merging of the chemical and the digital for a more powerful approach to fighting disease—is an innovative health platform co-founded by Shalem graduate Or Shoval last year.

The Asper Foundation, one of Canada’s largest private foundations and a leading force in Jewish philanthropy, has partnered with Shalem for the establishment of a multi-faceted Center for Zionist Education.

A pilot program will bring four outstanding young doctoral students to Shalem this fall in an effort to expose tomorrow’s leading Israeli scholars to the college’s singular approach to pedagogy.

For those of us facing big, fork-in-the-road decisions, from what to study to whom to marry or whether to have another kid, the Hoover Institution economist and president of Shalem College Russ Roberts has a surprising claim…

Hear two of Shalem’s leading scholars offer a different take on the story behind the security headlines and the establishment of the Jewish state.

Shalem College celebrated its sixth annual commencement exercises on June 29th in Jerusalem in the presence of students, faculty, family, and three recipients of an honorary degree.

Shalem’s new program for graduates, Shalem Plus, is designed to help an elite group of future leaders combine their drive to achieve real-world impact and advance their state with their commitment to constant learning and the relevance of ideas to what they do.

Shalem College President Russ Roberts speaks with Col. (res.) Eran Lerman, the architect of the new major in Strategy, Diplomacy, and Security (SDS) recently to learn about the curriculum, what makes it unique, and how it would incorporate the lessons of the current Russian-Ukrainian war.

In naming their study group the Nordau Seminar, Shalem freshmen Uri Schneider and Ilay Yunayev concede that they were choosing one of the lesser known of the figures associated with the Zionist movement, at least among Israelis today. As a symbol of the unique blend of values that animate the group’s aims, however, there was no one better than the Hungarian journalist, physician, and co-founder, with Theodor Herzl, of the World Zionist Congress.

Just over eight years after its establishment as a college in the service of the Jewish state, Shalem is advancing that mission dramatically with the establishment of a new major in Strategy, Diplomacy, and Security (SDS).
