The Department has a solid record of mentoring undergraduate students in research, both as independent researchers in a well-established undergraduate honors program and as research assistants to faculty. The successful candidate is expected to demonstrate excellence as a teacher and adviser as well as develop an active research program involving undergraduate students. All requirements for a doctorate degree in social psychology or highly related field, including dissertation, must be completed prior to the August 2011 start date. Teaching experience strongly preferred.
