May Session 2025 Global Seminar - Decoding Egypt: From Ancient to Modern Language

Join the Institute of Linguistics for an information session about their first study abroad program, Decoding Egypt: From Ancient to Modern Language. Open to all students with no language or coursework prerequisites, this 3-week program in May 2025 combines classroom learning and hands-on fieldwork in Cairo.

This program is led by Morgan Staley, an adjunct professor in the department who was previously a Fulbright scholar. Professor Staley has spent multiple years in the Middle East studying and conducting research focused on linguistic topics of morphology and syntax with Semitic languages.

During the information session, Professor Staley will discuss the application process, scholarships, and the program's tentative itinerary. She'll also answer any questions you have about logistics, coursework, or anything else. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about this opportunity to visit Cairo and decode its many languages.
