Joe
Lengermann is Associate Chair and Associate
Professor. At several different periods he has
served in other administrative roles as Interim
Department Chair and as Director of Graduate Studies.
Research interests have transitioned somewhat
from topics in the sociology of work and organizations
(professional autonomy, alienation, job satisfaction
and motivation) to topics related to the organization
and delivery of health care. These have included
hospital organization, work-site health promotion
programs (particularly in Fortune 500 and in Washington
D.C Top 200 companies), and policies and practices
regarding HIV / AIDS in the workplace. An example
of the latter interest involved a World AIDS Foundation
grant supported project in Brazil in 1994 and
1996 that involved a series of “training
of trainers” workshops for health professionals
in large Brazilian companies. Joe’s teaching
activity also has been reduced by a heavy administrative
involvement. In recent years he has been teaching
one or other of two undergraduate courses: SOCY
100 (Introduction to Sociology), and SOCY 460
(Sociology of Work).
Course Syllabi:
Sociology
100: Introduction to Sociology
Sociology 460: Sociology of Work
