Middle East Studies combines language expertise, cultural understanding, a solid disciplinary background, interdisciplinary study, and study abroad to achieve broad knowledge about the Middle East and its place in a global context. The program emphasizes the need to understand the region from a multidisciplinary perspective. As such it includes courses in anthropology, geography, history, literature and culture, political science, religion, and sociology, and requires that students take courses about the region in both the humanities and social sciences.
