AMIDEAST is a program provider offering 9 abroad programs. Programs offered include Study Abroad, Internship, Volunteer, and Intensive Language abroad programs in 4 countries such as Jordan, Morocco, Tunisia, and United Arab Emirates.
Amideast is a private, nonprofit organization that for more than 70 years has sought to create opportunity and mutual understanding among people in the Middle East, North Africa, and the United States through impactful education and cultural exchange opportunities. In collaboration with local partners in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors, we have contributed to improved education and career prospects for the people of the MENA region — and underserved youth and women in particular — through English language, workplace skills, entrepreneurship and innovation training programs; STEM activities; institutional capacity building; and educational exchange program administration. The relationships we have developed over the past seven plus decades have resulted in valuable partnerships on which we draw to enrich the experiences and expand the insights of study abroad students from a broad spectrum of interests.
Amideast is the only provider specialized in the MENA region, which means that you get knowledgeable, personalized service from credible academic and study abroad professionals with extensive area expertise and a commitment to decoloniality in programming.
Amideast offers diverse education abroad options, including in-person and hybrid modalities; stand-alone, direct enroll, customized/faculty-led programs; and our own fully accredited summer and semester programs. In addition to our ongoing programs in Morocco, Tunisia, Jordan, and UAE, we have also hosted programs in other countries, including Egypt, Kuwait, and Lebanon.
