| Posting Summary |
The Department of Sociology at Rutgers University, New Brunswick, seeks applications for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor level in the area of Environmental Sociology (focusing on climate change, disasters, or survival migration). The successful candidate will be responsible for performing research and teaching graduate/undergraduate classes in Sociology. This individual will be expected to strengthen one or more of our core research clusters, including environment and sustainability, global structures, race, ethnicity & immigration, politics and social movements, or health, population, and biomedicine, and contribute to our diverse expertise in qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methodologies. This individual will also have an opportunity to collaborate across a broad group of partners on and off-campus, including the Rutgers Energy Institute, the Rutgers Climate Institute, and the Rutgers Disaster Response Initiative, and contribute to the recently developed major in Environmental Studies in the School of Arts and Sciences. Qualified candidates must have a Ph.D. in Sociology or a related discipline pertinent to environmental sociology by start of appointment (on September 1, 2022). We will start reviewing applications on October 15, 2021. Applications received after that date cannot be assured full consideration. Because New Jersey is one of the most ethnically diverse U.S. states, and because we are its largest public university, we are especially interested in candidates who, through their research, teaching, and/or service will contribute to the diversity and excellence of our community.
