Summer School

The first session, which started in early July of this year, lasted for two months. The program provided the international students with an opportunity to study in Palestine and learn the Arabic language, in addition to enrolling in two courses in the Faculty of Graduate Studies and acquiring credit hours as part of their university studies. The two courses are: Palestinian identity and culture, and the structuralism and culture of the Settler Colonialism in Comparative Perspective.

At the headquarters of the Palestinian Radio and Television, the students of the program visited various departments and learned about the process of producing TV and radio programs and the modern editing and directing techniques used by the Television in transmitting news and media materials to the public.

During the tour, the students of the American University of The New School, who participated in the program, learned about the nature of the administrative division of the different parts of the West Bank. The tour allowed the students to move around in several areas with the help of community organizations due to the nature of these areas and the restrictions imposed on them.
