Description

Houghton University invites applications for a full-time tenure track appointment in Psychology at the assistant or associate rank, starting in the fall semester of 2023. Specific teaching assignments will depend on how the candidate’s expertise, interests, and experiences intersect with program needs.

The successful candidate will teach undergraduate courses in psychology, including foundational courses (e.g. Introduction to Psychology) and upper-level courses in clinical or counseling psychology (e.g. abnormal psychology, psychological assessment ). Teaching will be in person, with some online teaching opportunities. Responsibilities will include teaching 3-4 courses per semester, advising students, departmental collaboration, service, scholarship, and enhancing online offerings.

Qualifications:

Required qualifications

The selected candidate will have a mature Christian faith, strong communication and interpersonal skills, a commitment to excellence and creativity in undergraduate teaching, and an ability to integrate Christian faith into their teaching. Also required is an ability to help students form respectful attitudes and interactions with people who differ in abilities, attitudes, and cultural experiences.

A terminal degree in the field of Psychology is required at the time of hiring for a tenure track appointment (ABD or master’s degree in psychology will be considered for a term appointment, with a tenure track appointment commencing after the completion of the terminal degree). Candidates must demonstrate an interest and willingness to support and mentor undergraduate students, including collaborative research.

Preferred qualifications

Preference will be given to candidates with experience teaching online and those who hold current credentials in clinical psychology or counseling.

We encourage applications from members of historically underrepresented groups. All qualified applicants will receive equal consideration regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, age, or veteran status.

Deadline:

For priority consideration, please submit all application materials by November 15, 2022.
