Overview

The Duke Arabic Program trains both undergraduate and graduate students to communicate with others in a wide region extending from the Atlantic to the Gulf- a part of the world that is both economically important and always in the news. Arabic has helped many undergraduates to further their training in several professional and academic fields, such as Public Policy, Comparative Area Studies, Religion, Economics, Literature, History, and Anthropology. The Arabic Program is a vital component of Duke University's graduate program in Islamic Studies.
