Gautami Shah has been appointed senior lector in Hindi for a term of three years.

Shah began teaching Hindi and a course titled "South Asia in Translation" in 1991 at Duke University. She came to the Yale Center for International and Area Studies in the spring of 1999 to teach a first-semester Hindi course. Since then she has developed and taught the continuing sequences of elementary and intermediate Hindi, and will soon offer advanced Hindi.

Shah's appointment is part of a South Asian Studies Committee initiative to provide additional courses on South Asian subjects. Shah's popular courses, which are also supported by the Center of Language study, are considered a key part of the growing South Asian Studies program at Yale.
