Overview:
In the westernmost outpost of the MENA, students learn firsthand from leading faculty about Morocco's efforts to address contemporary issues such as gender rights, ethnic diversity, and democratization. Students' access to Moroccan culture offers unparalleled insights into the country's approach to pressing social, religious, and cultural matters of the Middle East and North Africa.
In this semester/academic year program in Rabat, Morocco, students will take 12-17 credits per semester and have the option of both Arabic and Area Studies courses taught in English. Students live with host families in Rabat and have language partners, weekly cultural activities, and the option to volunteer with local NGOs. There will be two excursions per semester, such as to Fez or Zawiyat Ahansal.
