The Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Howard University is searching for an Assistant Professor in Medical Sociology. The Department also has specializations in Social Inequality and Criminology and growth in Environmental Inequality. Applicants who are able to combine Medical Sociology with one of these areas will be given priority consideration.
The successful candidate will have demonstrated commitment in pursuing external grants, major publications, and community engagement in the identified area(s). Additionally we are interested in candidates who have experience with large data sets. A Sociology PhD must be completed before the fall semester, 2017.
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 could expect to teach both undergraduate and graduate courses in Medical Sociology, such as Health Services Research, Social Epidemiology, and Health Policy.
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.
Forward applications to Dr. Rebecca Reviere; Department of Sociology and Anthropology; 2441 6th St. NW, Room 207; Washington, DC 20059 or email to rreviere@howard.edu.
Please include a cover letter, CV, and the names of three references. Only complete applications will be considered. Application review will begin 15 October and continue until the position has been filled. Appointment will begin fall, 2017.
