Jewish Studies is an interdisciplinary academic field that studies the history, culture and religion of the Jewish peoples. The program at Connecticut College brings together faculty from a variety of academic disciplines who research and teach topics related to Jews and Judaism in various historical, social and political contexts, including particular focus on the Holocaust and the State of Israel, and to Jewish thought.
