The Department of Sociology (http://artsandsciences.sc.edu/socy/) at the University of South Carolina invites applications for TWO tenure-track Assistant Professor positions. For both positions, we seek candidates with research and teaching interests in Social Stratification and Inequality. This solicitation seeks candidates who also have the ability to teach quantitative methods at the graduate level. Candidates who have research and teaching interests in Social Stratification and Inequality but are not interested in teaching graduate quantitative methods are encouraged to see our other solicitation (http://uscjobs.sc.edu/postings/20033). Applicants qualified for both positions are encouraged to apply for both. Both positions are to begin in August 2018. Completion of PhD degree by the time of employment is expected.
Applicants should submit their curriculum vitae, a statement outlining their research and teaching agenda, three letters of recommendation, and up to three samples of writing. All material should be submitted via our online portal at: uscjobs.sc.edu/postings/20027
The faculty will begin reviewing applications by November 6th and review of applications will continue until the position is filled. For additional information contact the Recruitment Committee Chair, Matthew E. Brashears, at brasheam@mailbox.sc.edu.
