The Department of Sociology and Anthropology at St. Mary’s College of Maryland is accepting applications for the tenure-track position of Assistant Professor of Sociology, beginning August 2025.
Qualifications: Applicants must have a Ph.D. in sociology or a closely related field and be committed to excellence in undergraduate teaching. The specialty area is open, but applicants with health and well-being or medical sociology expertise are especially encouraged to apply. Teaching responsibilities will include Introduction to Sociology, Medical Sociology, or other courses in the candidate’s area of specialty. Candidates may also be asked to teach one or more courses in theory, statistics, or research methods that support the sociology program’s core requirements. We especially seek candidates with strong quantitative or qualitative skills whose elective courses would also support SMCM’s Public Health Integrated Inquiry. All professors at St. Mary’s are expected to contribute to the college-wide LEAD curriculum as well as their program curriculum. An interest in attracting and retaining students from underrepresented groups is desirable. The development of an active research program involving undergraduates is encouraged.
Non-sectarian since its founding, St. Mary’s College of Maryland, a public Carnegie Baccalaureate, Arts and Sciences institution located in St. Mary's City, 70 miles southeast of Washington, D.C. has been designated as Maryland's public honors college. With selective admissions policies, academically talented students, and a rigorous curriculum, we offer a small college experience similar to that found at exceptional private colleges. St. Mary’s faculty benefit from a comprehensive program of support for scholarship, research, travel, and curriculum development, including course releases for pre-tenure faculty and leaves for tenured faculty. The quality of life is enhanced by the recreational opportunities of the Chesapeake region and by our proximity to Washington, D.C. and Baltimore.
St. Mary’s College (www.smcm.edu) embodies diversity and inclusion in its mission. We create an environment that recognizes the value of individual and group differences, and we encourage inquiries from applicants who will contribute to our cultural and ethnic diversity. Application materials should include a cover letter (within the cover letter, applicants are requested to speak to ways in which their teaching will contribute to a culture of inclusion and campus diversity), curriculum vitae (include e-mail address), statement of teaching philosophy, statement of research interests, and evidence of teaching effectiveness (if available). In support of inclusive hiring practices, for all SMCM faculty searches, the College will also request three professional references (rather than letters of recommendation) at the time of application. Of these three references, at least one referee should speak to the candidate's disciplinary expertise, and at least one should have seen the candidate deliver or design classroom instruction. References will be contacted only for candidates who advance to finalist interviews. Applications are being accepted online at . Questions may be directed to Dr. Andrew Cognard-Black, department chair.
Review of applications will begin on October 1, 2024, and continue until the position is filled. Employment will be contingent upon successful completion of a criminal background check. St. Mary’s College of Maryland is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer.
