What You'll Study

This major builds upon the same multidisciplinary core found in the international affairs degree and moves quickly to focus on topics central to the Middle East. After four years of study, successful students will have proficiency in a modern regional language and the basic intellectual tools they need to understand the region's history and contemporary dynamics. Students are encouraged to study in the Middle East through one of GW's formal partnerships with a regional university or their own self-designed study-abroad program.
