Current undergraduate students are invited to a drop-in info session on the Department of Near Eastern Studies' major, minors, and language programs.

Stop by anytime from 12-2pm to speak with an advisor, learn more about the department’s academic programs, and talk about career opportunities for students who study the Middle East. Students who are ready to declare a major or minor with NES will have the opportunity to do so. Lunch will be provided.

Current NES students are also welcome to stop by for lunch and advising, and to learn more about the department’s Winter 2018 course offerings.

The Department of Near Eastern Studies teaches the diverse histories, religions, languages and literatures that originated in a vast region of the world extending from the Nile to the Oxus Rivers, and from the Mediterranean Sea to the Indian Ocean. Coursework in the department takes an interdisciplinary and comparative approach to societies, beginning with the emergence of cities and writing in Sumer and Ancient Egypt, to the rise of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, and onwards to the Modern Middle East, extending to its transnational and diasporic communities.

The languages taught by the department include Arabic, Armenian, Hebrew, Persian, Turkish, and several ancient Near Eastern languages.

Please RSVP at http://bit.ly/nesinfo. We hope to see you there!
