The George Washington University Department of Sociology invites applications for an Assistant Professor position to begin in Fall 2025 for a scholar in the field of criminology and criminal justice. This is a full-time, non-tenure-track faculty appointment. The duration of the appointment is for three years and it is renewable.

"We seek a scholar who will complement existing department strengths and contribute to teaching and advising needs in the MA program in Criminology, the undergraduate Criminal Justice major/minor, and the Law and Society minor, which are all housed in the department. We are particularly interested in applicants whose work is rooted in a critical, anti-racist, social justice framework. The successful candidate will be eligible to serve as Director of Undergraduate Studies or Graduate Studies; this position entails a significant service commitment. We strongly encourage applications from racial and ethnic minorities and other individuals who are under-represented in the profession. The typical teaching load is five courses per academic year (specialization open), along with scholarship and service."

Review of applications will begin on December 20, 2024, and will continue until the position is filled.
