Four-Week Mini-Courses
Short sessions cover Kurdish studies and online language teaching.
Four-week mini-courses begin in August 2026 at Zahra Institute, a Chicago research center and graduate school. The sessions address multimedia for online language teaching, Kurdish cinema, contemporary Kurdish literature, Qur'an in historical context, and Islamic constitutionalism. Current MA and Certificate students can earn one program credit per mini-course, while working professionals and other students may join the shorter format. Full-semester Kurmanji and Sorani language courses continue from beginner through advanced levels. Zahra Institute also presents a fall speaker series featuring topics including Kurds and Kurdistan in English writing, German-Iraqi Kurdish relations, and the Kurdish madrasa's intellectual tradition. Its programming focuses on Kurdish studies, language, literature, history, religion, politics, and related research.
