The Global Good Program

The Global Good Program in Morocco is scheduled for Summer 2026. We are finalizing details and will open applications as soon as that's done! Check back here and/or join our mailing list to be notified when applications open! 
The Global Good's four-week undergraduate seminars offer students the opportunity to complete Intellectual Heritage II: The Common Good, in and around Morocco's capital city of Rabat. These courses pair small seminars, in which students read and discuss works of enduring philosophical, literary, and social value, with frequent field trips to sites of ancient and modern cultural significance in and around Rabat. The program opens with an orientation session, and all courses are taught by Temple faculty from the U.S. campus with expertise in the region's culture, history, and literature.
