In the context of the ongoing academic cooperation between Freie Universität Berlin and the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies (DI), seven students from FU Berlin will take part in the winter semester 2018-19 in an intensive Modern Standard Arabic language course designed for advanced students. The cooperation between the FU and DI will also allow students to attend specialised graduate courses, offered in Arabic and English, at the DI. Furthermore, students of the FU will be encouraged to participate in cultural and language-exchange activities organised by the Doha Institute Language Center.
