The Center for Jewish Studies Heidelberg (German: Hochschule für Jüdische Studien Heidelberg, or HfJS) is an accredited institution of higher learning, supported by the Central Council of Jews in Germany and funded by the German federal government. The HfJS operates in close cooperation with the University of Heidelberg and opens its doors to students and scholars, regardless of religious affiliation. The center was founded by the Central Council of Jews in Germany in 1979. Already in 1971 the then State Rabbi of Baden Nathan Peter Levinson moved to establish an educational institution for rabbis, cantors and teachers of religious education. The institute was meant to be formed according to the tradition of the academies of the Wissenschaft des Judentums in Berlin and to entrench Jewish scholarship again in the scholarly landscape of Germany.
