This four-year programme is intended to give students a solid grounding in Modern Standard and classical Arabic, familiarity with the core textual tradition of Islam, a broad knowledge of Islamic history and some insight into the methodology of religious studies. The third year is spent at a university in the Middle East. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school. Languages at SOAS are taught ab initio, and no prior knowledge of Arabic is required. A good pass in a foreign language at A-level, or equivalent, is preferred. |
