Arabic Courses

Birzeit University has offered courses in Arabic as a Foreign Language (AFL) to non-native speakers for over ten years. The University’s highly qualified professors of AFL have drawn upon their extensive local and international experience to formulate two streams of language courses for the PAS Program: one in Modern Standard Arabic and one in Colloquial Arabic (Jerusalem dialect - Either transliteration or Arabic script is used depending on the knowledge of the majority of students enrolled in a course).

Language placement tests are given at the beginning of the program to ensure that each student is placed at the appropriate level. The levels on offer are according to demand.
