NORTHERN ARIZONA UNIVERSITY’S PSYCHOLOGY DEPARTMENT invites applications for a tenure-track appointment beginning August 2009 for an ASSISTANT PROFESSOR in Social/Personality psychology (subject to final budgetary approval). A Ph.D. in Psychology or closely related field and college teaching experience is required. Preference will be given to candidates who are committed to excellence in teaching of undergraduate and graduate students, who have a well-developed research agenda, and who are committed to working effectively within a diverse university community. Preferred qualifications also include demonstrated excellence in teaching and a strong empirical research program. We are also seeking candidates whose areas of research will both complement and strengthen existing emphases in the department. Normal teaching load for not-yet-tenured faculty is 3-2 for the academic year. We are interested in individuals who are willing to teach some combination of undergraduate courses (introductory psychology, statistics, research methods) as well as undergraduate and graduate courses in personality, social, and/or developmental psychology.
The 19-person Psychology Department oversees an undergraduate program with about 550 majors and masters-level graduate programs. Northern Arizona University is a 20,000-student institution with about 12,000 undergraduate students on its main campus in Flagstaff, a four-season community of about 57,000 at the base of the majestic San Francisco Peaks. NAU’s emphasis on undergraduate education is enhanced by its graduate programs and research as well distance learning opportunities. The Department encourages applications from individuals with a commitment to creating a welcoming educational environment for students from all ethnic, racial, and cultural backgrounds. Northern Arizona University requires satisfactory results for the following: a criminal background investigation, an employment history verification and a degree verification (in some cases) prior to employment. Candidates may also be required to complete a fingerprint background check. Review of applications will begin September 15, 2008 and continue until the position is filled or closed.
To apply, send a cover letter describing research and teaching interests, curriculum vita, evidence of teaching competence and scholarly work, unofficial transcripts of all college-level work, and three letters of reference to the Search committee (Department of Psychology, Northern Arizona University, Box 15106, Flagstaff, Arizona 86011-5106). Official transcripts will be required prior to an on-campus interview. No online applications will be accepted. Northern Arizona University is a committed Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action institution. Minorities, women, persons with disabilities, and veterans are encouraged to apply.
