Assistant Professor in Psychology and Law

    The Psychology Department at Iowa State University invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor in any aspect of psychology and law. The ability to affiliate with the Ph.D. programs in social psychology, cognitive psychology, or counseling psychology is desired but not required. Primary consideration will be given to those who have a record of publishing in top psychology journals and can teach an undergraduate course in psychology and law.

    A research-friendly teaching load involving graduate and undergraduate instruction creates a favorable environment for a productive career in our supportive and growing department. Newly obtained office and lab space has expanded the department’s research infrastructure. The Ames Community School District is ranked as the 12th best school district in the nation and Ames is rated as one of the best small towns in which to live and work. Members of under-represented groups are especially encouraged to apply.

    Review of applications will begin October 15, 2008 and continue until the position is filled. Candidates should send their vita, a cover letter describing research and teaching interests, relevant (p)reprints, and three letters of reference to: Gary Wells, Search Committee Chair, Department of Psychology, W112 Lagomarcino Hall, Iowa State University, Ames, IA 50011-3180.
