**The Opportunities**

The School of Social Sciences is the largest school in the Monash Arts faculty, offering a wide variety of programs including Human Geography, Sociology and Anthropology, Criminology, International Relations, Politics, and Gender Studies. It is consistently ranked as one of the best social science schools in the world for research quality and impact and a major focus of our teaching is to help students become responsible and informed global citizens.

The School of Social Sciences is looking to grow by appointing multiple outstanding academics who want to be part of building our thriving community of social scientists, leverage the excellent research support services available at Monash to develop their research profile, and contribute towards high quality teaching and graduate supervision.

Criminology at Monash is internationally renowned for theory-informed, data-driven, and evidence-based research that leads to practice and policy change in local, national, and international contexts. We are research leaders in a number of key areas including penology, gender and family violence, technology and crime, policing, and crime prevention. We are looking for new colleagues who can complement existing strengths as well as adding their own areas of expertise. Our overall philosophy speaks to social justice and inclusion, which is reflected in our research, teaching, supervision, and workplace culture. Monash Criminology is distinct in Australia for its consistent success in attracting national and international competitive funding for major research. We strongly support interdisciplinary and impactful research, at local, national and international levels. We are embedded in the School of Social Science, and aligned to its identified research strengths of Community, Culture & Place; Technologies & Digital Societies; Healthy & Thriving Societies; Climate & Sustainability; Institutions, Power & Coercion; and Inclusive Peace & Security.

Monash Criminology delivers excellence in teaching and supervision. We are the second largest criminology program in Australia and teach 3000+ undergraduates every year in units aligned with our research strengths and supervise over 25 postgraduate students. We also teach a range of postgraduate coursework units in the Master of Public Policy and gender and family violence prevention, and we are in the process of developing micro-credential courses across several areas of our expertise, aimed at increasing our delivery to industry professionals. In addition to a criminology major in a Bachelor of Arts, our students can complete specialist, cutting-edge degrees including a Bachelor of Criminology, and a Bachelor of Criminology and Policing that delivers a unique student experience at the Monash and Victoria Police Academy campuses. All our degrees equip students with the professional skills, specialist knowledge and key capabilities for careers in a wide range of social justice and Criminology focused fields.
