Welcome to HJCS: the Hebrew and Jewish Cultural Studies Program
The Hebrew and Jewish Cultural Studies Program at the University of Michigan is part of the
Department of Near Eastern Studies. The program is affiliated with the Frankel Center for Judaic Studies and the Center for Middle Eastern and North-African Studies.
Why Study Hebrew?
People study Hebrew for different reasons. For some, it is the desire to be able to read the Hebrew Bible
in the original language; for others, who are interested in Israel and wish to understand its people,
culture and politics, Hebrew is necessary. Some people wish to use Hebrew as a means of communication.
For others, the goal is the ability to read Hebrew literature, scholarship, newspapers or electronic
media. No matter what your goal is, we offer a variety of courses and learning opportunities.
The study of Hebrew at the University of Michigan began in 1890. Today, the Hebrew program at the
University of Michigan is one of the largest and strongest programs in the country. We offer courses at
all levels - from beginners to advanced, as well as a variety of introductory, upper-level and
graduate-level courses in Hebrew and Jewish literature and culture, and courses on Israel and the Middle-East.
If you would like to know more about the program or to get advice in choosing a course, please explore
this site or contact Professor Shachar Pinsker.
