Overview

Through the Middle East Pluralities program is offered at The American University of Paris you will be introduced to the actors and factors that make up the countries in the Middle East, as well as the interaction of each country with one another and with the international community. Instead of merely picking courses from any discipline that might slightly relate to the Middle East, we want to help you create a multidisciplinary foundation for your understanding of the region that includes language acquisition, since we believe that understanding the Middle East requires knowledge of a language of the region.

The educational goals for this major are as follows:

You will develop competency with the historical, political, religious, economic, geographic, and cultural landscape of the Middle East.
You will acquire the skills necessary to investigate, analyze, and deconstruct the role and impact of Middle East political, economic, and cultural developments on the globe.
You will become effective communicator of Middle Eastern modern history, causes, issues, and cultures to the world.
You will gain a working level of fluency in Arabic.
