The Louis Frieberg Center for East Asian Studies, founded in 2006, is an interdisciplinary forum at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The center promotes the teaching, research and discussion of East Asian subjects, and links the academy to the wider public so that a diverse group of people and scholars can exchange ideas across disciplinary boundaries.

The Hebrew University of Jerusalem’s various departments offer a wide variety of courses covering East Asian culture and affairs. The Center's mission is to coordinate Asia-related activities at the university and offer a broader selection of courses and lectures.
