Cadets travel to and reside in a linguistic and cultural community for three weeks. There they use their knowledge of Arabic, its varieties and connected cultures to accomplish learning tasks, solve problems and live daily routines. A structured program of immersion may include visits to sites of military, political, historical, or social significance; official orientations and lectures; meetings with local or national civilian and military leaders; and directed language learning activities. A department instructor accompanies the participating cadets who are obliged to use Arabic during this extended stay.

Evenings will be devoted to review/critique of the day's activities.
