Cultural Activities

While studying at the YCMES, students are offered numerous cultural activities to acquaint them with Yemeni customs and traditions. These activities are designed to encourage interaction with Yemeni society, and many are free or at little cost to the student. In-city field trips, lectures, movies, visits to hammams, museums, invitations to weddings, and more are regularly scheduled. Student exchanges between Yemeni students and YCMES students are organized weekly to promote friendships and discussion. In addition to the planned activities provided by the YCMES, students will inevitably be welcomed to many events and private homes by countless Yemeni acquaintances. The YCMES urges students to directly experience the local culture and strives to facilitate cross-cultural interaction.
