Visiting Scholars

Each academic year, the Center for Jewish Studies welcomes a group of scholars from around the world to gather at Harvard to engage in full-time research in Jewish Studies. By drawing together scholars from a variety of universities and a variety of disciplines within the humanities and social sciences, the Center for Jewish Studies makes it possible for these visiting scholars to share their research not only with each other but also with members of the Harvard community.
