Program dates: 01/12/2015 – 04/18/2015
The 15 students studying in Morocco spent the majority of the semester living with host families in the cities of Marrakesh and Fez with excursions to the rural areas of southern Morocco and other cities throughout the program. Prior to departure, students study Modern Standard Arabic and a more intensive Moroccan Arabic course is taken while abroad. Some of the key topics considered are the diverse religious heritage of the region, Morocco’s distinctive architecture and urban landscape, colonial and post-colonial experiences, modernization and globalization, and women and gender relations.
Below is the link to a video one of the students made from the Morocco program.
