[Jobs] Mannheim - assistant professor

[Leora Lawton]

The School of Social Sciences at the University of Mannheim invites
applications for a position as an

Assistant Professor in Statistics and Social Research Methods (W1)

We seek a scholar with an innovative research agenda and teaching
experience in social research methods and statistics. The candidate should
ideally have at least one substantial research area in the sociology of the
family, education, or social mobility. The successful candidate should be
committed to outstanding teaching in methods, sociology, and related
courses offered in the B.A. and M.A./Ph.D. programs in sociology.
Contributions to the research activities at the Mannheim Centre for
European Social Research (MZES) are expected. We explicitly welcome
participation in the social science doctoral program (taught in English) of
the Graduate School of Economic and Social Sciences (GESS).

Candidates will need to demonstrate excellent teaching skills. Employment
requirements include a first university degree and a doctoral degree. An
outstanding dissertation is expected. Teaching can be in English, but
non-German speakers are expected to learn German within the first three
years. The University of Mannheim is deeply committed to student mentoring
and expects a strong presence of its faculty on campus. The successful
candidate is therefore expected to move into the Mannheim metropolitan
area.

The University of Mannheim is an equal opportunity employer. Candidates
with disabilities will be given preference in case of equal qualifications.
The University of Mannheim seeks to increase the percentage of its female
faculty members in research and teaching. Thus, qualified women are
especially encouraged to apply.

Please submit your application online at http://jobs.sowi.uni-mannheim.de/.
Your application should consist of four PDFs: a cover letter, curriculum
vitae including a list of publications, certificates and records and the
two latest teaching evaluations (in a single file).

If you cannot submit your application online, please send the above
mentioned documents to the Dean of the School of Social Sciences at the
University of Mannheim, A5, 6, 68131 Mannheim, Germany.

All applications received before September 10, 2015 will be given full
consideration.
