UCI just posted a job opening, which I would appreciate you passing on to
highly qualified fledgling sociologists. The specialization is
open, but demography/family/life course/gender is an area of programmatic
need.<br><br>
Just to add a little local color and context to our search, here's what
the 2010 External Reviewers of the Sociology Department had to say:
<br><br>
<i>The recent history of the Department of Sociology at U.C. Irvine is a
success story unparalleled at the national level. From its inception, the
department has made remarkable strides in quality through a hiring
strategy that included a handful of senior “stars” in key areas and then
aggressive recruitment at the associate and particularly the assistant
professor level. <br><br>
</i>Thank you for bringing UCI to the attention of a new generation of
sociologist-demographers. <br><br>
Best regards, Judy Treas<br><br>
