Here is a great gig in a rapidly rising department:
The Department of Sociology at the University of Utah invites applications for an open rank tenured or tenure-track position to begin on July 1, 2015. We are seeking a sociologist who will contribute to the Department specialty in Population and Health (soc.utah.edu/graduate/description.php). Candidates should have a PhD in Sociology by summer 2015 at the latest. The successful applicant will have a well-defined research agenda and a strong record of, or clear potential for, achieving success in academic publication and extramural funding commensurate with qualifications and experience. All research areas within a general population and health framework will be considered. Examples of specific areas of research that complement existing faculty strengths include, but are not limited to, social inequalities in mental and physical health, migration, population aging and life course, family demography, global health, and quantitative methods in population research. Applicants should be prepared to contribute to the department’s teaching mission at both the undergraduate and graduate level.
The sociology program awards the BS/BA, MA and PhD, with about 400 undergraduate majors and a highly regarded doctoral program. The University is situated in a metropolitan area of 1.3 million, within thirty minutes of hiking and skiing in the spectacular Wasatch Mountain Range. The University of Utah values candidates who have experience working in settings with students from diverse backgrounds, and who possess a strong commitment to improving access to higher education for historically underrepresented students. Review of applications will begin on October 1 and continue until the position is filled. Please send a letter describing research and teaching interests, a curriculum vita, samples of scholarly work, and three letters of recommendation to:
Population and Health Sociology Search Committee
University of Utah
Department of Sociology
380 S 1530 E Rm 301
Salt Lake City, Utah 84112-0250
Position availability is contingent on final budgetary approval. The University of Utah is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer, encourages applications from women and minorities, and provides reasonable accommodations to the known disabilities of applicants and employees.
