Director's Message
The UCLA Younes and Soraya Nazarian Center for Israel Studies, situated in the UCLA International Institute, provides academic discourse about Israel, from the pre-state period to the present. With Israel in the news on an ongoing basis, nuanced and informative discussion rests on academic integrity and civil discourse. Through our programs, webinars, and podcasts, we invite you to engage in exploring modern Israel and its complex history, multi-ethnic society, and rich culture, along with its many challenges and achievements.
Students can engage with a wealth of offerings through courses, programs, and student-focused discussions. Students and faculty can benefit from the Center's funding of research on topics related to the study of modern Israel. We also welcome robust community engagement in our public programming and offerings.
I look forward to the many opportunities to learn and work with scholars from around the world as we study Israel in all its fascinating aspects.
Sincerely,
Professor Steven E. Zipperstein
Director, UCLA Younes & Soraya Nazarian Center for Israel Studies
