YCMES Student Spotlights

For the last 19 years, over 8,000 students have passed through the gates of the Yemen Language Center, Center for Arab Studies, and now, the Yemen College of Middle Eastern Studies. Undoubtedly, these students have gone back to their respective countries and become ambassadors for the country of Yemen. Many students also take advantage of their time in Yemen to make a difference; some volunteer at local organizations, spread education and cross-cultural understandings, and learn local arts and customs. The YCMES is proud to highlight the students below for their high achievements during their stay in Sana'a, Yemen.
