Assistant Professors (Tenure-Track)

DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOPATHOLOGY & BIOLOGICAL BASES OF PSYCHOPATHOLOGY. The Department of Psychology at the University of New Orleans, a member of the LSU system, is searching for two creative and energetic scholars to join our faculty at the Assistant Professor level (tenure track) for Fall 2009. In recent years, the Department has developed two strong and unique Ph.D. programs, one in Applied Developmental Psychology and one Applied Biopsychology, both with an emphasis on psychopathology. The primary considerations in hiring for both positions will be the applicant's scholarly potential and fit within the particular concentration. For the developmental
psychopathology concentration, a successful candidate will demonstrate a strong commitment to a developmentally-oriented approach to research and practice. Applicants must have a Ph.D. in psychology but individuals trained in many psychological disciplines (e.g., developmental, clinical, school, community, gerontology) will be considered. For information on the developmental psychopathology position, contact Carl Weems at cweems@uno.edu or 504-280-
6772. For the biological bases of psychopathology concentration, applicants must have a Ph.D. in psychology but individuals trained in any area of biological psychology will be considered, as long as their research contributes to theories and/or applications related to psychopathology. We are particularly interested in applicants with expertise in psychophysiology or behavioral medicine, especially those with translational research programs or interests. For information on the biological bases of psychopathology position, contact Kevin Greve at kgreve@uno.edu or 504-280-6185. Applicants should send their vita, a statement of research interests and career goals, sample reprints/preprints, and three letters of reference to: Faculty Search Committee, Department of Psychology, University of New Orleans, New Orleans, LA 70148. Review of applications will be ongoing and continue until the available positions are filled. The University of New Orleans is an Affirmative Action/Equal Employment Opportunity employer. Women, ethnic minorities, veterans and persons with disabilities are encouraged to apply.
