Applicants should send statements describing their research program and their teaching interests, a CV, and up to five reprints and preprints.

The successful applicant will be expected to establish an independent program of research that can garner extramural support, to supervise and mentor graduate students, to teach graduate and undergraduate classes, and to participate in departmental governance. Applicants must have the Ph.D. degree by the time of the appointment. Post-doctoral experience is highly desirable.

For one of the two positions we are seeking truly outstanding scholars in the area of INDUSTRIAL/ORGANIZATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY, SOCIAL-ORGANIZATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY, OR ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR to enhance our current industrial/organizational program. We are specifically interested in applicants with research and teaching interests on organizational topics, including but not limited to job attitudes, leadership, motivation, occupational health, occupational safety, or teams, and related topics.
For the second position we are interested in scholars who are conducting empirical, theory driven, research in SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY. Our primary concern will be in the degree to which the applicants' research will contribute to our emerging program in Social Psychology and will, at the same time, create bridges between Social Psychology and other sub disciplines of Psychology. We have a particular interest in scholars whose research is relevant to the relationship between Health and Behavior.
