Jewish Studies is a multi-disciplinary, College-wide investigation of Jewish civilization in its many historical and geographical manifestations. The scope of the Jewish Studies curriculum covers Jewish civilization from its ancient Near Eastern origins through its contemporary history and culture in Israel and the diaspora communities around the world. It is a secular, academic program with diverse, cross-cultural emphases.

The Jewish Studies Program offers a major and a minor in Jewish Studies, as well as a minor in Hebrew. Students explore Jewish history, religion, society, literature, and culture while developing meaningful connections to language and tradition. The program also provides meaningful support for both students and faculty, reflecting its commitment to academic and community excellence.
