The Middle Eastern studies program, which is affiliated with
the Center for Middle Eastern Studies, is an interdisciplinary major and minor.
In addition to courses originating in the Middle Eastern studies program, the
major and minor include courses anchored in other departments that are approved
for the Middle Eastern studies major or minor, many of which are cross-listed.
Cross-listed courses usually utilize the same last three digits of the course
number as the listing in the originating department. The Middle Eastern studies
code designation is 01:685:__. For example, course 01:790:351 Contemporary
Politics in the Middle East, a political science course, is offered
simultaneously within Middle Eastern studies as course 01:685:351, with the
same title. Credit is not given for both a Middle Eastern studies course
(01:685:__) and its corresponding cross-listed course.
Summary descriptions of cross-listed and other approved
courses may be found under the relevant originating department's subject code
listing (e.g., for a description of 01:685:385 Arab Politics and Society,
consult the parallel course entry in the political science program, which is
01:790:385).
