I am the chair of the sociology department at St. Bonaventure University (NY). We are in the process of beginning a search, and are contemplating a position centered around communication and information technologies. I am seeking a bit more background information before we proceed, and have been directed to this venue as a site that may provide answers. Here are my questions: -With regard to undergraduate sociology majors who have had their studies focus on communication and information technologies, I am interested in what specific positions graduates have found. (We are in a position, as are many, of having to advocate for a hire by making predictions about student marketability.) -Also, what is the popularity of this area at the graduate level? If we were to follow this route and conduct a search for a specialist in this area, would we be assured of a healthy amount of interest in the position? -Finally, does any university or college currently offer an undergraduate sociology program with a concentration in communication and information technologies? Thanks for any assistance or direction. This will be helpful to us as we make a decision about the position, and (I hope) move ahead with looking at new directions in our curriculum. Dr. Kathy A.
