The Department of Sociology and Equity Studies in Education (SESE) at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE), University of Toronto (U of T), invites applications for a Feminist Scholar, with an established record of research and teaching in the broad area of Gender and Work.
Gender is understood to interact with other aspects of identity, including race, language, class, sexuality and disability.
The successful candidate must have a completed Ph.D. (or equivalent), with a demonstrated record of excellence in teaching and research.
Preference will be given to candidates that have particular expertise in one or more of the following areas: workplace organization and learning; relations between paid and unpaid work; sociology of professions; teachers’ work; labour market policy; migration, globalization and transnationalism; and, community organizing and social movements related to work.
Interest in teaching courses in qualitative research methods would be an asset.
Candidates who are able to teach and supervise students in both English and French will be preferred.
The successful candidate will contribute to SESE graduate programs leading to M.Ed., M.A., Ed.D. and Ph.D. degrees, as well as to OISE’s Initial Teacher Education program.
We understand Education as a broad, multi-faceted endeavour -- the social organization of knowledge, teaching and learning in a number of relations and sites, within and beyond schooling. "Equity" informs the range of critical perspectives through which these phenomena are analyzed. We blend this vision of Sociology in Education with principles of interdisciplinarity and community engagement, while working to bridge divisions between theory and practice.
Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience.
