Emily K. Carian
Assistant Professor of Teaching
Department of Sociology
University of California - Irvine
I design and teach undergraduate courses, including introduction to sociology, research methods, statistics, social psychology, the sociology of gender, and masculinities. I research why gender inequality is so persistent, focusing on masculinity and male supremacism and cultural beliefs about gender. Using qualitative and quantitative methods, I examine the mechanisms that sustain gender inequality across a variety of contexts and populations.
I grew up in the the Coachella Valley in Southern California. I have a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from Dartmouth College, a Master's degree in Urban Education Policy and Administration from Loyola Marymount University, and Master's and doctoral degree in Sociology from Stanford University.
