Jewish Studies at Stanford
The Taube Center for Jewish Studies offers an interdisciplinary program for the study and understanding of Jewish cultures, literatures, languages, religion, politics, and history.
Welcome to Stanford Jewish Studies, 2025-2026!
We begin this new academic—and Jewish—year with great enthusiasm. While it is not always easy to be optimistic, we remain devoted to our mission: to learn, think, and explore together as an intellectual community—engaging with the many meanings of Jewishness, deepening its intersections with other disciplines, and sustaining the university as a space of courageous and responsible inquiry.
