Regional Studies in French, Morocco (Semester/Academic Year)

Study in the imperial city of Rabat, Morocco’s bustling capital in which Arab, European, indigenous Amazigh, and sub-Saharan African influences intersect to create a cultural dynamic unlike any other.

The Amideast Education Abroad Regional Studies in French program offers a unique study abroad opportunity for intermediate to advanced students of the French language. A diverse array of courses are taught in the French language (with the exception of Arabic courses). Colloquial Moroccan Arabic is a required course, and Modern Standard Arabic is available as an optional course as well. Homestays with local French-speaking Moroccan families grant students an intimate look at the local culture as they hone their language skills in a distinctly non-European Francophone environment. Finally, organized excursions span exciting locations from the ancient medina of Fez to the quiet village of Zawyat Ahansal in the Atlas Mountains.
