The Department of Asian and Near Eastern Languages announces a tenure-track
opening for an Associate Professor of Arabic to begin Fall 2000.

The appointee will be expected to teach Arabic language courses at all
levels.  In addition, s/he will be expected to participate in the work of
the department and the Program in Near Eastern Studies.  The candidate will
be expected to periodically travel to Jerusalem and direct Brigham Young
University's Intensive Arabic Program (five months in length) at its
Jersualem Center for Near Eastern Studies.  Inasmuch as these duties
require one to teach a course involving significant LDS doctrinal content
strong preference will be given to LDS applicants.

Candidates must be fluent in Modern Standard Arabic, at least one dialect
(with strong preference for ability in both Egyptian and Palestinian), and
English.  S/he must hold a Ph.D. in a relevant field.  Applicants should
provide evidence of strong scholarship and superior teaching.

Candidates should send a letter of application and complete curriculum
vitae to:

	Professor Dilworth Parkinson, Chairman
	Department of Asian and Near Eastern Languages
	4052 Jesse Knight Humanities Building
	Brigham Young University
	Provo, Utah 84602

The department will begin to review applications on March 15, 2000, but
applications will continue to be accepted until the position is filled.

Brigham Young University, an equal opportunity employer, is sponsored by
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and requires observance of
Church standards.  Preference is given to members of the sponsoring church.
