the position of Dean of the Division of Social Sciences (http://weber.ucsd.edu).
Comprising nine academic departments (Anthropology, Cognitive Science,
Communication, Economics, Ethnic Studies, Linguistics, Political
Science, Psychology, and Sociology) and a wide range of
interdisciplinary programs and research units, Social Sciences is the
largest academic division at UCSD in numbers of faculty and
undergraduate students. The major research centers and institutes with

Social Sciences
currently is home to 217 faculty members, 7,610 undergraduates, and 645
graduate students, with plans for growth throughout the decade ahead.

ambitious agenda for ever greater stature and a broadening of academic
initiatives and activities. The dean plays a leadership role in
the division’s cross-disciplinary collaborations with other divisions
and schools throughout the campus. The Division of Social Sciences
has a strong commitment to achieving diversity, and the search committee

As a key member of
the University’s leadership team, the dean reports directly to the

of Social Sciences at the campus, local, state, national, and
