FACULTY POSITION
Arabic Language
NYU ABU DHABI

NYU Abu Dhabi seeks to fill an instructor position in Arabic Language.
The appointee will join a thriving Arabic language program in an
exciting linguistic and cultural context. This is a renewable
three-year appointment with a 3/3 teaching load. The load could be
later lowered if the candidate has an active research agenda. MA in
Arabic language or a related field is required; PhD preferred. We seek
candidates with primary interest, research, and experience in teaching
Arabic as a foreign language at all levels with ability to teach MSA
and at least one Arabic dialect.

New York University has established itself as a Global Network
University, a multi- site, organically connected network encompassing
key global cities and idea capitals. The network has three
foundational, degree-granting campuses: New York, Abu Dhabi, and
Shanghai, complemented by a network of more than 15 research and
study-away sites across five continents. Faculty and students will
circulate within this global network in pursuit of common research
interests, the promotion of cross-cultural understanding and solutions
for problems, both local and global.

Entering its second year, NYU Abu Dhabi has already recruited a cohort
of faculty who are at once distinguished in their research and
teaching.  Our first two classes of students are drawn from around the
world and surpass all traditional recruitment benchmarks, both US and
global. NYU Abu Dhabi’s highly selective liberal arts enterprise is
complemented by an institute for advanced research, sponsoring
cutting-edge projects across the Arts, Humanities, Social Sciences,
Sciences, and Engineering.

The terms of employment are quite competitive and include housing and
educational subsidies for children. Faculty may also spend time at NYU
New York and other sites of the global network, engaging in both
research and teaching opportunities. The appointment will begin
September 1, 2012.

The review of applications will begin on January 2, 2012 and will
continue until the position is filled. Applicants need to submit a
curriculum vitae, statement of research and teaching philosophy,
representative publications, copies of student evaluations and the
names and contact information of three references. Please visit our
website at http://nyuad.nyu.edu/human.resources/open.positions.html
for instructions and other information on how to apply. If you have
any questions, please e-mail nyuad.humanities at nyu.edu.

NYU Abu Dhabi is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer.
