Arabic Minor


The 24-credit Arabic minor consists of four language courses, one culture course or one linguistics course, and one elective course. A fifth semester of the Arabic language would satisfy the elective requirement. The Arabic minor can easily be completed with regular Arabic program language offerings. Also offered are English-medium content courses to satisfy the minor elective requirement. Some of the elective options are offered through the Less-Commonly-Taught-Languages Center and the Department of Linguistics, and the rest are offered through other departments across the Dietrich School.
