From http://www.utexas.edu/cola/centers/casa

CASA offers advanced level training in Arabic language and culture to qualified American students at its two locations at the American University in Cairo, Egypt and at the University of Damascus, Syria. Applicants to the various CASA programs must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents and should have completed a minimum of 3 years of formal instruction in Arabic prior to joining CASA.

The Center for Arabic Study Abroad (CASA) offers four programs:

* CASA I Summer Only (Cairo)
* CASA I Full-Year (Cairo and Damascus)
* CASA II for Recent Alumni (Cairo)
* CASA III for Faculty (Cairo)

The Summer and Full-Year programs are designed for graduate and undergraduate students.
The CASA II program aims to provide further opportunities for CASA fellows who have completed the CASA Full-Year program within the past five years, to continue to enhance their language skills and advance their Arabic-based research in Egypt. We plan to add a CASA II component to the CASA program in Damascus in the near future.

The CASA III program is designed to meet the linguistic and research needs of professors with specialization in Arabic and Middle Eastern Studies.

Deadline for submitting CASA applications: January 9, 2009
