Specialty Areas: Arabic
Description: 
The Department of Linguistics and Asian/Middle Eastern Languages and the Language Acquisition Resource Center (LARC) at San Diego State University invite applications for a tenure-track position in the area of Arabic language and culture at the rank of Assistant Professor to start in the Fall of 2011. Specialization is open to any field that is related to Arabic language. The successful candidate should be able to teach Arabic language courses at all levels, as well as possibly related classes in Arabic culture.

 

During the first three years of the appointment, the new hire will be appointed approximately half time in the Department of Linguistics and half time in the LARC. Duties for the LARC (a Title VI-funded National Foreign Language Resource Center) include serving as Principal Investigator, or co-PI, on new grants coming into the Language Acquisition Resource Center; supervising materials creation activities for languages sponsored by the Center; presenting research results at local, regional, and international venues; and taking an active role in shaping LARC’s grant writing activities. After the first three years, the appointed person will return full time to the Department of Linguistics.
 

Applicants must have the Ph.D. in hand by August 2011.  Experience in teaching Arabic, and native or near-native fluency in Arabic and English are required.  The successful candidate should have an active research agenda in the field.

Please send a letter of application, curriculum vitae, transcripts, 1-2 samples of scholarly writing, and a 10-minute teaching video demonstration to: Ghada Osman, Chair, Arabic Search Committee, Department of Linguistics and Asian/Middle Eastern Languages, San Diego State University, 5500 Campanile Drive, San Diego, California 92182-7727.
