Summer Arabic Program in Amman: This nine week program helps students strengthen their skills in Modern Standard Arabic by offering intensive language training. All skills are emphasized in the classroom and during tutorials. Group excursions, cultural activities, and a week long travel break give students various perspectives of Jordanian society and different venues in which to practice their Arabic. 

Middle Eastern and North African Studies (MENA) Program: This nine week intensive summer program, in which participants travel to Amman and Paris, offers a multifaceted introduction to the languages, history and culture of the Maghreb, emphasizing the region’s relations with the Middle East and France. Students take the equivalent of a year of Modern Standard Arabic and receive training in the dialects of the Maghreb.
