The GRADUATE PROGRAM IN SOCIOLOGY The Australian National University (ANU) is located in the centre of Canberra, the capital city of Australia. Nestled beneath the Brindabella Ranges three hours drive south-west of Sydney, Canberra is a two hour drive away from the south coast of New South Wales, and a three hour drive from the ski fields of the Snowy Mountain Ranges. Canberra is one of the few cities in Australia to experience four distinct seasons. Summers can be hot (though rarely humid) with day temperatures ranging from 20 degrees Celsius (68 F) to over 32 degrees Celsius (90 F). Because the city is 571 metres above sea level (roughly 2,000 feet), nights are generally cool. Spring and autumn days are generally sunny. Winter temperatures range from about -5 degrees Celsius (23 F) at night to around 13 degrees Celsius (55 F) by day. The average rainfall is about 650 mm. Snowfall in the city is rare and usually melts within minutes.
The University
The Australian National University enjoys unusual cultural resources by virtue of being located in the national capital. Canberra is the home of the Australian National Gallery, the National Library, the National Science and Technology Centre, the National Film and Sound Archive and the Australian Institute of Sport. There are also many fine concert halls, theatres, movie houses, restaurants, parks and gardens. The ANU is also close to Federal Parliament, government departments, the headquarters of many national bodies, other national organisations, such as the Institute of Criminology and the Australian Bureau of Statistics, and other tertiary institutions including the University of Canberra and the Australian Defence Force Academy.
The ANU is divided into two parts: the Faculties, where both undergraduate teaching and postgraduate training at all levels are conducted, and the Institute of Advanced Studies, comprising several Research Schools, which are responsible for the training of postgraduate students only. In the Institute there is a concentration of sociologists in the Demography and Sociology Programs within the Research School of Social Sciences (RSSS). In the Faculties most sociologists are members of the Sociology Discipline, School of Social Sciences in the Faculty of Arts. The Graduate School spans the entire University and facilitates the supervision of postgraduate students by drawing on resources throughout the University.The ANU is a university of world-wide renown, and Sociology at ANU enjoys a high international profile. Those who come to study Sociology at the ANU can therefore expect an unusually rich intellectual and cultural life surrounded by the beauty of the Australian bush.
Sociology at the ANU
The Sociology Discipline in The Faculties and the Sociology Program at the Research School of Social Sciences maintains a congenial, co-operative and stimulating atmosphere. Academic Staff (Faculty) and graduate students have offices in the Haydon-Allen and Coombs buildings.
The Graduate Program in Sociology has links with the Lifecourse Project, National Social Science Survey, and the Social Science Data Archive in the Research School of Social Sciences. The program also draws on sociologists in the Centre for Continuing Education, the National Centre for Epidemiology and Population Health, the Public Policy Program, the Urban Research Unit and elsewhere. Closely affiliated with the program are members of the Population Studies and Women's Studies Programs.
The Graduate Program in Sociology focuses on social processes and structures in Australia and other industrialised countries and on processes of development in non-Western societies. It aims to develop both theoretical and empirical research skills and encourages both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Major research fields within the program include equality of opportunity and relative equity, education in national development, social mobility, social and health policy, gender (including men studies), ethnic and life cycle inequalities, sociology of health and medicine, social networks, political and social attitudes, globalisation and international immigration, immigrants in the labour market, sociology of emotions, ethnic and racial relations, social structure and political relations in Eastern Europe, and sociological theory.
An extensive program of seminars is maintained throughout the year in The Faculties and RSSS. Recent speakers at the Sociology seminars have included: Professor Arthur Stinchcombe, Northwestern University; Mr Michael Bittman, Social Policy Research Centre, University of NSW; Professor Rosemary Crompton, University of Leicester; Dr John Holmwood, University of Edinburgh; Professor Goran Therborn, Goteborg University; Dr Bev Thiele, Murdoch University; Dr Jeffrey Reitz, University of Toronto; Professor Ann Orloff, University of Wisconsin-Madison; Dr Barbara Pocock, University of Adelaide; Professor John Law, Keele University, and Professor Miriam Glucksman, University of Essex; Mr Michael Bittman, Social Policy Research Center, University of New South Wales; Professor David Rose, University of Essex, Professor Nancy Folbre, University of Massachusetts, Mikael Hjerm, Umea University, Professor Christine Sylvester, Australian National University; Professor Bryan Turner, Deakin University; as well as members of the Sociology Graduate Program.The Graduate Program in Sociology offers MA and PhD courses by research only, which involve regular consultation with a core supervisor. Students have two supplementary advisors, either from sociology or elsewhere in the University. The possibilities for interdisciplinary work are enhanced by access to advisors in any area from Political Science to Neuroscience, from Law to Women's Studies.
Graduate Degrees and Supervision
The Program is administered by a Board of Studies comprised of both staff and students from Sociology. The ANU Graduate School makes funds available to graduate students through a Board of Studies. These funds have been used in the past for visiting speakers of special interest to graduate students; conferences; and beginning and end of year social functions.
Areas of sociological interest among staff and graduate students are diverse, but there are concentrations of research activity, in social inequality; lifecourse analysis; work, employment, technology and gender. Other important research areas include sociology of health and illness, sociology of emotions, education and development, sociology of social movements, racial and ethnic relations, sociology of culture, gender (including men) studies. More details regarding the interests of the academic staff members are provided for each member (below).
Applications for graduate study are welcomed in any of the areas of expertise of particular staff members.Sociology at the ANU offers excellent computer and shared office facilities available to graduate students. In addition, funds may be available to support conference attendance and overseas fieldwork. Courses are offered on campus relating to e-mail and internet use, word processing and other computer facilities. Part-time tutoring (i.e., teaching assistant work) may be available from time to time, some in conjunction with the ANU Graduate Teaching Program, and a semester training course in academic teaching offered free to graduate students.
Facilities
The University library has extensive holdings and provides a variety of services for users including bibliographic search facilities and large volumes of information on CD ROM. The National Library is nearby and is complemented by specialised libraries in government departments and libraries at other tertiary institutions. Other library material are available through an inter-library loan system.
In addition there is ready access to personal computers and to several servers within a variety of statistical and other packages, and to various other computers (unix workstations, mainframes, super computers). Local and international connections through the internet and the world wide web are also available.The Program has had an excellent record of placing students in both academic and non-academic employment. Those who see their future in academic life are encouraged to orient their particular program of study towards this aim in consultation with supervisors. Advice is available regarding publication and how students can make themselves attractive on the job market. Recent PhDs have had considerable success in securing employment.
