Summary: In this paper we study the partially ordered set of the involutions of the symmetric group $S _{n}$ with the order induced by the Bruhat order of $S _{n}$. We prove that this is a graded poset, with rank function given by the average of the number of inversions and the number of excedances, and that it is lexicographically shellable, hence Cohen-Macaulay, and Eulerian.
Keywords: symmetric group, Bruhat order, involution, $E$L-shellability, Cohen-Macaulay
