Program location: Amman, Jordan

The 8-week Arizona in Jordan summer program offers Modern Standard Arabic
(intermediate and advanced levels) and Jordanian Colloquial Arabic
(beginning and intermediate levels). Courses include 120 classroom hours
and 20 hours with a peer language partner. While most programs offer
colloquial Arabic as a smaller component of their MSA courses, our program
in Jordan offers the opportunity to spend an entire summer focusing just on
colloquial Arabic.

Students may also choose to enroll in the 3-credit “Contemporary
Ethnography of the Middle East” course, a hands-on exploration of Jordanian
culture and society, culminating in an individual ethnographic fieldwork
project on café culture in Amman.

During their time in Amman, students have the choice of living with a
homestay family or in a self-catered apartment. Academic excursions include
trips to Wadi Rum, Petra, the Dead Sea, Jerash, and Ajloun.
