INTRODUCTION

El Instituto (Institute of Latina/o, Caribbean and Latin American Studies) and the Department of Sociology of the University of Connecticut (UConn) seek to hire an Associate or Full Professor, specializing in any area of sociology and Latina/o, Caribbean and Latin American Studies. This person will have an outstanding record of professional accomplishments commensurate with appointment at the rank of Associate Professor or Professor, with the opportunity for tenure at hire. The successful candidate will be expected to conduct research, teach undergraduate- and graduate-level courses, provide guidance in conducting policy-relevant research to graduate students in El Instituto (Master's students), Sociology (Master's and Ph.D. students), and other social research units, and contribute to the leadership and administration within El Instituto and the Department. Positive factors for consideration include but are not limited to: a strong record of scholarly accomplishment; research interests that complement other areas of strength within the Institute, Department, and/or University; effective undergraduate teaching; demonstrated excellence in mentorship and/or graduate training; and active engagement with professional, University, and community life. The teaching load will be one course per semester in Sociology and one course per semester in Latina/o Studies, with either or both courses being possibly cross-listed under both Sociology and El Instituto.

Founded in 1881, UConn is a Land Grant and Sea Grant institution and member of the Space Grant Consortium. It is the state's flagship institution of higher education and includes a main campus in Storrs, CT, four regional campuses throughout the state, and 13 Schools and Colleges, including a Law School in Hartford, and Medical and Dental Schools at the UConn Health campus in Farmington. The University has approximately 10,000 faculty and staff and 32,000 students, including nearly 24,000 undergraduates and over 8,000 graduate and professional students. UConn is a Carnegie Foundation R1 (highest research activity) institution, among the top 25 public universities in the nation. Through research, teaching, service, and outreach, UConn embraces diversity and cultivates leadership, integrity, and engaged citizenship in its students, faculty, staff, and alumni. UConn promotes the health and well-being of citizens by enhancing the social, economic, cultural, and natural environments of the state and beyond. The University serves as a beacon of academic and research excellence as well as a center for innovation and social service to communities. UConn is a leader in many scholarly, research, and innovation areas. Today, the path forward includes exciting opportunities and notable challenges. Record numbers of undergraduate applications and support for student success have enabled the University to become extraordinarily selective.

In the area of teaching, the successful candidate will share a deep commitment to effective instruction at the undergraduate and graduate levels of Latina/o Studies and Sociology in both El Instituto and Sociology.
