WELCOME!
The Carolina Center for the Study of the
Middle East and Muslim Civilizations (CCSMEMC) promotes understanding
of the Middle East through teaching, research, and community outreach.
Our center is distinguished by its
cross-regional approach to Middle East studies, one that breaks down
area studies barriers in order to track global flows of ideas,
commodities, and people.
CCSMEMC is part of the Consortium in Middle
East Studies at Duke University
and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
