The MA program in Jewish Cultural History is a diverse, interdisciplinary program, which deals with Jewish culture, history, and religion from antiquity to the present. The main fields are Jewish traditional literature, Yiddish and German-Jewish literature of the 19th and 20th centuries, research on antisemitism and the Holocaust, and language courses in Modern Hebrew and Yiddish that must be taken over a span of three semesters each.The specific approach of the Master’s program in Jewish Cultural History at the University of Salzburg lies in its interdisciplinary networking of Jewish Studies with other research fields of cultural studies.

Participating in various summer courses (for example, at the European Summer University for Jewish Studies in Hohenems) is also possible.
