Admission requirements
Entry requirements for students in the BA Midden-Oostenstudies/track Arabisch:
Propedeutic exam and 15 EC trackspecific courses (BA 2/1st semester), including Spoken Arabic: Moroccan.
Description
Students will work intensively on further developing their knowledge of the Moroccan spoken language. This will be done, among other things, by preparing speaking assignments, discussions and presentations.
Course objectives
Students will be able to express themselves better on more complex topics such as social issues, current affairs and contemporary Morocco.
Timetable
The timetables are available through My Timetable.
Mode of instruction
Seminar
Attendance and active participation are obligatory for seminars. Students are required to prepare for and attend all sessions. The course is offered as part of a full-time program of studies, and therefore work commitments, holidays, or overseas travel do not constitute valid reasons for absence. The lecturer should be informed in writing of any classes to be missed for a valid reason (i.e., due to unforeseen circumstances that are beyond the student’s control, such as documented illness, family bereavement, problems with residence permits, victim of crime, or railway delays). In case of a justified absence, it is up to the Lecturer to decide whether the missed class should be made up with an extra assignment. The maximum of such absences during a semester is two. Please note that you are required to provide documentation that supports your case for absence where possible. Absence without notification and approval could result in a grade deduction, or in work not being marked and a failing grade for the course.
