Assistant Professor of Sociology
The Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Elon University seeks applicants for a tenure-track position at the assistant professor level in sociology beginning mid-August 2023. Applicants must have a PhD by the time of appointment. A PhD in Sociology is strongly preferred. Candidates with PhDs in related fields should include strong evidence of their preparedness to teach and do research in Sociology.
We are primarily interested in hiring an excellent teacher, researcher, and mentor. Teaching includes courses in candidate’s area of specialization, quantitative methods or theory, and possible rotation in introduction to sociology, capstone seminar, and courses in the Elon Core Curriculum. Areas of expertise are flexible, but some areas of particular interest include: global social problems and change; quantitative research methods; urban and community studies. Faculty in any area with demonstrated excellence in research and teaching who can articulate how they would build the department beyond existing strengths are encouraged to apply. Candidates who have experience working with a diverse range of people and who can contribute to the climate of inclusivity are encouraged to identify their experiences in their cover letter.
Elon is a dynamic, private, co-educational, comprehensive institution that is a national model for actively engaging faculty and students in teaching and learning in a liberal arts based residential campus. Located between Raleigh-Durham and Greensboro, it has a robust center for international studies and study abroad as well as a Program for Ethnographic Research and Community Studies (PERCS). To learn more about Elon, please visit our website at www.elon.edu. Applications must be received by November 1, 2022, to be assured of consideration. Review of applications will begin immediately after and continue until the position is filled.
Send letter of application, curriculum vitae, statement of teaching practice, statement of research, and names of three academic references to Dr. Rena Zito and Dr. Raj Ghoshal, Co-Chairs of the Sociology Search Committee, at socsearch2022@elon.edu. Preliminary interviews will be conducted via Zoom. Top candidates will be invited to an on-campus interview. We affirm that Elon University values and celebrates the diverse backgrounds, cultures, experiences, and perspectives of our community members. We are an Equal Opportunity Employer, and our employees are people who foster respect for human differences, passion for lifelong learning, personal integrity, and an ethic of work and service. Diversity not only includes race and gender identity, but also age, disability status, veteran status, sexual orientation, religion, and many other parts of one’s identity. All our employees’ points of view are key to our success, and inclusion is everyone's responsibility.
