The position will require the incumbent to teach three courses per semester (Fall and Spring) in Sociology, including, but not limited to courses in the AU Core curriculum.

Established in 1938, the Department of Sociology offers both BA and MA degree programs as well as a graduate certificate in Public Sociology. The Center on Health, Risk, and Society (CHRS) is based in the department. One source of the department’s strength is the complex range of scholarly interests and social identities that our faculty, staff, and students encompass, and we seek every opportunity to expand that strength.
