Assistant Professor of Arabic

UNIVERSITY OF MIAMI, Department of Modern Languages and Literatures,
invites applications for a tenure-track position in Arabic, beginning in
August 2013 at the rank of Assistant Professor. The successful candidate
will have native or near-native competence in Arabic and a solid knowledge
of English. Field of specialization open, but sociolinguistics or cultural
studies strongly preferred. The successful candidate will have the ability
to teach undergraduate courses at all levels, be willing to participate in
the development of an undergraduate curriculum in Arabic studies, and be
available to work with graduate students in related fields. The candidate
will also be expected to contribute to the interdisciplinary minor in
Arabic Studies, which will entail collaboration with colleagues in fields
such as Arabic literary and cultural studies, Francophone Maghrebian
studies, Middle Eastern political science, international studies, history,
and archaeology, Islamic art, and Islamic studies. A strong commitment to
excellence in undergraduate teaching at a private multicultural
non-sectarian institution should accompany solid scholarly potential.
 Prior teaching experience is required and a record of academic
publications is highly desirable.  Ph.D. must be completed by July 2013.

Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the
position is filled.  Preference will be given to candidates whose materials
are received by October 1, 2012. Interested candidates may apply
electronically to Elizabeth Dezarov, Office Manager, Department of Modern
Languages and Literatures - edezarov at miami.edu - or mail the application to
Dr. Christina Civantos, Chair of the Search Committee, whose address is
below. In either case, the application should consist of a cover letter,
curriculum vitae, transcripts, and three letters of recommendation.
