Ithaca College/Sociology

ASSISTANT PROFESSOR - GLOBAL/INTERNATIONAL
FULL LISTING

Ithaca College's Department of Sociology invites applications for a tenure-eligible assistant professor, to begin Fall 2011. We seek a colleague with culturally and academically diverse interests and commitments to teach courses with Global and International foci, to blend with department strengths in inequalities, culture, and social justice. Special consideration will be given to those who work in the area of Race and Ethnicity. Successful candidates will demonstrate an ability to integrate research and teaching; those who employ critical/creative analyses and those with public sociology interests are especially encouraged. The ideal applicant will have a commitment to both teaching and research with special consideration given to those with experience supervising (or incorporating) undergraduate research and learning in a liberal arts environment. The position requires a rotation in one (or more) of Sociological Theory, Research Methods, and/or Introduction to Sociology. Ph.D. in Sociology or closely related field is required by time of appointment.


Successful candidates will demonstrate an ability to teach in ways that value the varied learning needs and interests of a culturally diverse student population, and that reflect a commitment to encouraging the success of all students. We also seek candidates who have relevant experience and/or a record of professional engagement with groups and communities underrepresented in the academy. Candidates from underrepresented groups whose exclusion from the academy has been longstanding are strongly encouraged to apply.

Interested applicants should apply online (www.icjobs.org ) by submitting a cover letter and CV. Questions about the online application should be directed to the Office of Human Resources at (607) 274-1207. Review of applications will begin December 15, 2010 and will continue until the position is filled.
