Description:
Our language program is located in the foremost language teaching institution in Jordan and the Middle East region. It was established, upon Royal Decree, in 1979 to provide language learning for all of the individuals interested in learning Arabic.
Our modern university campus is commitment to excellence and is recognized internationally. Nestled on a beautiful hill in the northwestern part of this vibrant city, (approx. 10 kms from the city center) on the main highway connecting Amman with Suweileh (Queen Rania Road).
The Language Center is located in the heart of the campus next to the Faculty of Arts and offers a rich intellectual campus life with local and international students. This perfect location also offers many excellent facilities including a wide range of sports and recreational activities.
Highlights:
Originally spread over seven hills, or jabals, the capital of the Hashemite kingdom now sprawls over 19 hills and is home to well over a million people, almost half the country's population.
Known as the White City, the hills are covered in a jumble of light-colored stone houses, consistently box-like in shape with flat roofs characteristic of a typical desert city.
Faded minarets, pavement markets, Arabian sweet shops and the crumbling remains of ancient civilizations contrast wonderfully with the contemporary edifices, fashionable boutiques and international restaurants. This blend of the old and the new combines in the noisy and chaotic downtown area where the city's extraordinarily friendly residents go about their business.
At the heart of downtown is the Ottoman-style King Hussein Mosque, around which the buzz and bustle is at its most interesting.
