Arabic Linguistics Institute (ALI) was established in 1975 with the intention to be an international and scientifically pioneering institute in its programs on Arabic to Speakers of Other Languages. ALI's main mission is to provide a learning and highly motivating environment in order to promote nationally and internationally, via offering teaching, training, and research outstanding programs in the field of teaching Arabic to speakers of other languages and establishing a real partnership with the local and international communities.
ALI's main objectives are to:
- Teach Arabic to non-Arabic speakers and the Islamic Arab culture through two programs: (1) the intensive full-time language and culture program, and (2) the part-time evening program.
- Prepare qualified teachers in teaching Arabic to non-Arabic speakers.
- Train teachers in-service working in the field of teaching Arabic to non-native speakers.
- Improve scholarly research activities in the fields of linguistics, applied linguistics, and education.
The institute consists of three teaching programs:
1. Intensive Language Program.
2. Training Teachers of Arabic to Non-native Speakers Program.
3. Teaching Arabic to Non-native Speakers program.
There are also several supporting units such as (1) the Department of Graduate Studies and Scientific Research, and (2) the TASOL Chair, which both promote and encourage research activities at and outside the institute.
