"My time at the Arab Institute for Security Studies was an unforgettable and unparalleled learning experience. I went to the Institute hoping to come away with a better understanding of nuclear proliferation issues in the Middle East. My three months there gave me that and much more. The office staff not only supported and facilitated my research, but also helped me to understand proliferation within the larger context of regional security and the political complexities of the Middle East. I felt that they were truly interested in making my sure my experience was a rich one. Institute staff always found ways to put my skills to use - whether it was by contributing to the monthly security bulletin, helping in the planning of conferences, or participating in regular office meetings. The summer I spent with them in Amman gave me invaluable education in Middle East security issues. Students interested in this field would do well to consider spending time there. "
