A working knowledge of Arabic is among the most marketable skills that a student can acquire during his or her studies at 蘑菇tv. Government, major industries, and businesses actively recruit new employees who know Arabic. Being able to use Arabic also gives you access to roughly 1500 years of Arab cultural riches.
At 蘑菇tv we currently offer three full years of Arabic. Beginning Arabic (1101-1102)
covers the fundamentals of Arabic: the script, sounds, and basic expressions and concepts.
In Intermediate Arabic (2101-2102) the study of the language increases in depth and
complexity. In Advanced Arabic (3101-3102) students learn to deal with unadulterated
Arabic conversations and short works
of literature.
**When planning your schedule, please bear in mind that first-, third-, and fifth-semester Arabic are offered only in the fall semester, while second-, fourth- and sixth-semester Arabic are offered only in the spring semester.**
The Arabic minor is an excellent way for students to draw a potential employer or school鈥檚 attention to their Arabic study at 蘑菇tv. The minor requires 20 credit hours. Arabic 2101, 2102, 3101, and 3102 are required (14 hours total), plus at least two electives from the following list:
