PER CURIAM:

       Muzhgan I. Nazarova seeks to appeal the district court’s order directing arbitration

in her civil action, brought pursuant to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42

U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17 (2012), against Duke University. This court may exercise

jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2012), and certain interlocutory and

collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2012); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial

Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545–46 (1949). The appealed order stayed the district

court proceedings pending arbitration of Nazarova’s claims. Consequently, the order is

neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. See 9 U.S.C.

§ 16(b) (2012). We therefore dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. We dispense

with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                              DISMISSED
