About this program
The Master's Degree in Middle Eastern Studies at CUNY Graduate School and University Center offers a comprehensive exploration of the culture, history, politics, and languages of the Middle East. The course is designed to provide students with a deep understanding of the region's diverse societies and their global implications. Through a multidisciplinary approach, students analyze the historical developments, social dynamics, and economic challenges that define the Middle East today.
The program typically includes core courses that cover topics such as political systems, historical narratives, cultural practices, and religious influences within the Middle Eastern context. Additionally, students have the opportunity to specialize in specific areas of interest, ranging from Arab-Israeli relations to Islamic studies. This allows for a tailored educational experience that meets personal and professional goals.
Students in this program will develop a range of skills including critical thinking, research methodologies, cross-cultural communication, and analytical writing. Graduating from this program in the thriving environment of New York City gives students access to a vibrant academic community, extensive resources, and a diverse cultural setting that enhances their learning experience.

Students benefit from engaging with experts and peers from various backgrounds, fostering discussions that transcend geographical boundaries.
Entry requirements
Applicants generally need a bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution, with a focus on social sciences, humanities, or a related field. A strong academic record and relevant coursework in Middle Eastern studies or languages are often beneficial, along with letters of recommendation and a personal statement highlighting motivation and academic goals.
English: Non-native English speakers typically need to demonstrate proficiency through standardized tests such as IELTS or TOEFL, with scores that meet the program's minimum requirements. These scores should reflect a strong capability in reading, writing, speaking, and listening.
International students: International students should check the official requirements for obtaining a student visa, which generally includes providing proof of acceptance, financial stability, and a valid passport. Additional documentation such as health insurance may also be necessary, so prospective students are encouraged to review the specifics on their university's website.
