The position is to open to candidates with any specialization in psychology, though preference will be given to individuals with a doctorate in clinical or counseling psychology. Applications from individuals with the capacity to teach assessment-related courses (e.g., MMPI, non-IQ cognitive assessments) at the doctoral level are particularly encouraged.

The preferred candidate will have earned a doctorate in psychology or a related field, but candidates with an M.A./M.S. in psychology or a related discipline and experience teaching undergraduate students will also be considered.
