The Department of Sociology at the University of Oxford is seeking to appoint a full-time Associate Professor in Social Demography in association with a Tutorial Fellowship in Human Sciences at St John’s College. Associate Professor is the main academic career grade at Oxford with a focus on research and teaching, spanning the full range of professor grades in the USA.
They are open to different areas of specialization within social demography, such as (but not limited to) family and fertility, gender, migration, life course, population health, race, ethnicity, socio-demographic inequalities, and the relationship between population dynamics, the environment, and sustainable development. Methodologically, they expect the successful candidate to use quantitative methods broadly defined in their research and be able to teach techniques of quantitative demography, including both macro- and micro-approaches. Candidates with interests in different regions of the world, including those working on countries of the Global South are welcome to apply.
The post holder is expected to undertake teaching responsibilities linked to demography, quantitative methods and life course research within the BA Human Sciences, and the MSc in Sociology and MPhil Sociology and Demography.
Combined salary from £55,755 to £74,867 per annum plus additional benefits and allowances.
Deadline: 06 January 2025
