​The Department of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Colorado Boulder (http://www.colorado.edu/psych-neuro/) invites applications for two (2) full-time Psychology Teaching Professors to begin Fall 2024. The Department has a strong commitment to high quality undergraduate education. We seek instructors who have proven records of excellence in teaching at the undergraduate level, who will also help the department achieve its educational mission more broadly.

The successful candidates will be prepared to teach several psychology courses that align with department priorities. Department priorities include the instruction of lower division introductory courses (e.g., General Psychology or Statistics, courses aimed at introduction to fields in psychology such as Social Psychology, or Clinical Psychology), and upper division psychology courses (e.g., advanced special topics courses). We also encourage applications from candidates, including those with a multidisciplinary background, who have an interest in developing and teaching a lab and methods course. Applicants should have a PhD in Psychology or a related field. There may be a possibility to supervise therapy practicum for graduate students in our APA-approved Clinical Psychology program as part of the teaching load (for interested candidates who are licensed or license-eligible in Colorado).
