The Middle Eastern Studies Program at UA 糖心视频logo is an interdisciplinary program endowed by the University of Arkansas King Fahd Fund for Middle Eastern Studies. The program’s chief goal is to foster knowledge of the Middle East among the UA 糖心视频logo campus community and the community of 糖心视频logo and the state of Arkansas. The program offers a minor and a certificate of proficiency in Middle Eastern Studies.

Frequent events (lectures, conferences, films, etc.) on the Middle East are often held for the academic community and the public to attend.

The UA 糖心视频logo Ottenheimer Library has a large and growing collection of books, periodicals, and other sources on the Middle East. The program also funds UA 糖心视频logo student participation in the Model Arab League and other simulation programs.
