Bio/Research
Roderic Beaujot is Professor of Sociology at the University of Western Ontario. After a first degree at Collège Matthieu in Saskatchewan, he did his graduate work at the University of Alberta, obtaining a PhD in Sociology in 1975. During 1974-76 he worked as a Demographer at the Demography Division of Statistics Canada, and since 1976 has been at the Population Studies Centre and the Department of Sociology, University of Western Ontario.
On the population of Canada, his research interests include the following: evolving demographics (fertility, mortality, immigration, internal migration, aging, regional distribution) and implications for social policy in areas such as health, family, labour force, language, multi-culturalism, equal opportunity, pensions, education, and social security.
On fertility, his research interest include questions of gender and families, especially the earning and caring activities over the life course as seen in the division of paid and unpaid work, and how these form the context through which to interpret childbearing behaviour.
