Applied Arabic Language and Literature
This is a course for students who have completed level 3 Arabic at EC (see below) or equivalent elsewhere to help them apply their knowledge of grammar by studying a range of different texts in Arabic. This course aims to improve students’ ability to understand and speak Arabic better.
Level 3 of EC's comprehensive Arabic language programme. The programme incorporates modern and classical Arabic as well as grammar. It is one of the most comprehensive coverages of classical Arabic and grammar available. Students who are looking for serious and focussed study of Arabic in order to access the language of the Quran and Hadith should seriously consider completing the whole programme. The whole programme is comprised of 9 bite sized courses of equal size in terms of content and contact time. Each course is normally taught over 12 weeks. 3 courses represent 1 level of our Islamic Sciences Programme (ISP). We also supplement these courses with other courses to help students gain a better appreciation of Arabic language and literature. Students who are already on the programme will know of this at the relevant time. See chart below:
