Additional Detail


Job Description:
The Department of Sociology & Criminal Justice at Old Dominion University invites applicants for a 10-month tenure track Assistant Professor position beginning Fall 2025. We are seeking a criminologist or sociologist to teach undergraduate and graduate courses (on campus and online) whose research addresses inequality, public policy, and social justice in the criminal justice system and its responses to crime and victimization; and/or those whose work explores the nexus of public health and criminal justice.

The successful candidate will teach existing courses in our undergraduate programs in Criminal Justice and Sociology, including research methods and a capstone research course, as well as contribute to our Ph.D. program in Criminology & Criminal Justice. Our Ph.D. in Criminology & Criminal Justice is a sociological criminology program that highlights social inequality and public policy in the study of crime and justice issues. The position carries a 3-3 teaching load consistent within other departments in the College of Arts & Letters, though there are opportunities for reduction.

Opportunities exist for the selected candidate to participate in ODU’s Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity, Department of Women’s and Gender Studies, School of Cybersecurity, and School of Public Health. The surrounding 14 localities and their criminal justice and social service agencies also offer tremendous opportunities for research and community engagement partnerships.

The Department has an accomplished, collaborative, and diverse faculty and student body committed to equality, social justice, and transformative policies and practices and the successful candidate will enrich this environment.
Minimum Qualifications:

  • Able to teach existing on-campus and online courses in our undergraduate programs in Criminal Justice and in Sociology (including CRJS/SOC 436 Capstone Research Project) and in the Ph.D. program in Criminology & Criminal Justice (https://catalog.odu.edu/courses/crjs/, https://catalog.odu.edu/courses/crim/).
  • A demonstrated ability to conduct research, publish, and teach in criminology/criminal justice and/or sociology
  • A demonstrated commitment to promoting and enhancing diversity.
Additional Considerations:

Preference will be given to candidates with evidence of potential for grant writing success.
