Program Overview
This program is designed to give students an introduction to the rich diversity and complexities of the region through an interdisciplinary course that includes the study of history, art, culture, economics, music, politics, and religion. Students get to know locals through interactive assignments. On-site learning, coupled with guest lectures by local experts, makes historical sights in Cairo and Egypt come alive. The location/s of this program may change if needed. Students should be aware that the program is physically strenuous and involves walking several miles at a time on most days, as well as hiking and swimming.
All KIIS course credit is awarded by Western Kentucky University. Prior to your KIIS program, please speak with your home campus academic advisor and/or study abroad office to determine course equivalencies. Grades will be transferred to your home institution in mid-August after the completion of the program. Course offerings are subject to change according to enrollment. For more information, visit Transcripts & Grades.
