About the role

Penn State University Park invites applications for a full-time tenure-track/Associate Professor position in the Department of Sociology and Criminology. The appointment starts Fall 2027 and requires a Ph. D. in Sociology or related field by that date. Onsite teaching is essential; candidates should have a record of research, teaching, and service and be prepared to teach a range of undergraduate and graduate courses.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
