Job Summary
NYUADs J-Term courses are designed as short intensive and highly immersive learning experiences during January. They intensify the students focus reach beyond the classroom to incorporate experiential learning and are site-specific engaging students deeply with the people and the place where they study. Intellectually linked to their locations the courses take advantage of local resources explore the history culture economy and society of the host communities and often involve collaborative activities with local students and experts. The courses illuminate the interdependence of local knowledge and global awareness while fostering cross-cultural research and insights into complex global issues. Taking a single course during the J-Term gives students more time for concentrated reflection on a dedicated topic than is the case during the semester when students must split their time between several courses. The intensity of the shared experience also forges an unusually strong bond between the students and their professors. Although the J-Term is short it has a great impact because of its immersive character and linking of theoretical and experiential learning. All NYUAD undergraduates must complete two J-Term courses as a requirement for graduation.
