Program

Middle East Studies at Northeastern is an interdisciplinary program, drawing on courses in international affairs; political science; history; philosophy; religion; anthropology; and languages, literatures and cultures. The program provides an overview of the Middle East (Arab world, Israel, Iran and Turkey) and aims to enhance students� understanding of European and American interactions with this culturally diverse and politically important region of the world. Students are encouraged to take advantage of the University�s study-abroad programs in Egypt, our partnership with Hebrew College, and the �Dialogue of Civilizations� programs (faculty-led summer programs) in Egypt, Turkey, Israel, and Palestine.
