Language Lab
Open Monday-Friday
8.00am – 5.00pm
The Center maintains a multi-station computer laboratory to support language instruction. Software includes interactive language learning and word processing programs in Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and Turkish; CD ROMs of regional and cultural interest; multi-language encyclopedias; and language games. All computers are connected to the Internet. A flatbed scanner is also available. Access to Adobe Photoshop and other visual programs may also be arranged.
Priority is given to students using the lab for language learning-related activities. The lab may be closed when language classes reserve the space.
