Sociology.

Ryerson University is known for innovative programs built on the  
integration of theoretical and practically oriented learning. More  
than 95 undergraduate and graduate programs are distinguished by a  
professionally focused curriculum and strong emphasis on excellence in  
teaching, research and creative activities. Ryerson is also a leader  
in adult learning, with the largest university-based continuing  
education school in Canada. Ryerson's Sociology degree program is now  
in its third year. The program offers a curriculum requiring a  
substantial commitment to research methods and social theory, with  
emphasis on diversity, media and the contemporary urban experience.  
Members of the Department work from a range of theoretical  
perspectives. For further information about the Department, consult

We invite applications for three tenure-track positions at the  
undergraduate level (two at the rank of Assistant Professor, and one

to Social Research and Statistics; the other two positions are open to  
the various specialties taught by the Department, including, but not  
limited to, introductory sociology, contemporary culture and media,  
and family sociology. We are seeking colleagues who have completed  
their PhD prior to the commencement of this position, are strongly  
committed to, and experienced in teaching undergraduate students, and  
have a demonstrated capacity for scholarship, as indicated by a  
publication record of note or promise and a research plan. Candidates  
in related disciplines may be considered.

Applicants should submit an application letter, including a statement  
of the Ryerson courses they would prefer to teach, a current  
curriculum vitae indicating specific courses taught with full academic  
responsibility, summary evaluations of teaching, and the names,  
addresses, telephone numbers and e-mail addresses of three academic  
referees, at least one of whom is clearly identified as being able to  
specifically assess the applicant's classroom teaching (please do not  
send referee letters at this time), by January 15, 2008, to: Professor  
C.T. Gillin, c/o Ms. Elizabeth Johnson, Department of Sociology,  
Jorgenson Hall (JOR 302), Ryerson University, 350 Victoria Street,  
Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5B 2K3. Applications can be mailed or  
delivered by hand to Ms. Johnson. E-mailed and faxed applications will  
not be accepted. The Department thanks all applicants in advance and  
will only contact those applicants who are to be interviewed.

Ryerson University has an employment equity program and encourages  
applications from all qualified individuals, including Aboriginal  
peoples, persons with disabilities, members of visible minorities and  
women. Members of designated groups are encouraged to self-identify.  
All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadian  
citizens and permanent residents will be given priority.
