The Department of Sociology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas invites applications for two full-time, tenure-track positions at the rank of Assistant Professor. We seek scholars whose primary expertise is in social inequalities, such as race, class, gender, sexuality, and their interactions, and whose qualifications and interests build upon existing departmental strengths. Applicants must demonstrate their ability to conduct independent research with the potential to develop a strong record of scholarship, to obtain extramural funding for research, and teach at the graduate and undergraduate level. Applicants must also demonstrate awareness of and sensitivity to the educational goals of a multicultural student population through training, teaching, and other comparable experience. The successful candidate will (a) teach undergraduate and graduate courses in the sociology of race, class, gender, or sexuality, other related specialty areas, and quantitative methods or qualitative methods, (b) supervise masters and doctoral students, and (c) seek extramural research funding.
QUALIFICATIONS
This position requires a PhD in Sociology from a regionally accredited college or university and demonstrate the achievement or strong promise of scholarly success, as well as the ability to acquire extramural research funding. Credentials must be obtained prior to the start of employment.
SALARY RANGE
Salary competitive with those at similarly situated institutions. Position is contingent upon funding. 
APPLICATION DETAILS
Submit a letter of interest, a detailed resume listing qualifications and experience, and the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of at least three professional references who may be contacted. Applicants should fully describe their qualifications and experience, with specific reference to each of the minimum and preferred qualifications because this is the information on which the initial review of materials will be based.
