The Department of Jewish Studies offers a compre- hensive examination of all aspects of Jewish experience from an interdisciplinary perspective. The department addresses the historical, social, cultural, religious, and political life of Jews in the modern period and throughout the ages. Jewish studies courses are open to all students.

Jewish studies offers a combination of courses that it originates and cross-listed courses that originate in other departments and are counted toward the Jewish studies major or minor. Credit is not given for both a Jewish studies course (01:563: ___) and its corresponding cross- listed course.
