The Department of Sociology and Criminology at Howard University is searching for an Assistant Professor in Sociological Methods. The Department has specializations in Social Inequality, Urban Sociology, Medical Sociology, Criminology, and Environmental Inequality. Applicants who have both methodological expertise and a concentration in at least one of these five areas will be given priority consideration.
Applicants must have completed a PhD in Sociology before the fall semester, 2018.
The successful candidate will have demonstrated commitment to pursuing external grants, major publications, and community engagement in the identified area(s). We are interested in candidates who have experience with and can teach quantitative and qualitative research methods.
In addition to research, excellence in teaching is prized at Howard. The student to faculty ratio at Howard is among the lowest in the nation, allowing opportunities for small classes and mentorship. A new faculty member will teach both undergraduate and graduate courses in Sociological Methods, as well as Introduction to Sociology and classes in one’s specialization area.
Howard’s location in Washington, DC affords the successful candidate an excellent opportunity to develop relationships with the National Institutes of Health, Health and Human Services, Environmental Protection Agency, National Institute of Justice, and other federal agencies; research institutions; and community-based organizations. Beyond research and teaching at Howard, living in the nation’s capital provides abundant professional opportunities and rich cultural experiences.
Howard University is an EEO/AA employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, disability, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
