Main research activities
Central European University offers a Jewish Studies specialization covering the wide expanse of Jewish culture, society and history, with a special emphasis on the ramified Jewish experience in Central and Eastern Europe from early modern times to the present. In keeping with its interdisciplinary character of CEU, the Jewish Studies specialisation is integrated into the broader degree programs of the History Department, Medieval Studies Department, and the Nationalism Studies Program. The specialisation is offered in the one- and two-year M.A. programs of all these departments. Advanced students can pursue their studies in the PhD programs of the Doctoral School of History. Hebrew and other relevant languages can be studied as source languages.
CEU publishes a bi-annual Jewish Studies Yearbook, in which texts from the public lecture series are published along with other original research by students and faculty.
There is a Jewish Studies library
