JOBS: Faculty Position in Clinical Gero-neuropsychology

The University of Colorado at Colorado Springs anticipates a tenure-track assistant professor position for a clinical neuropsychologist with specialized training and research interests in aging beginning August 2011, pending funding.

Applicants should have a Ph.D. from a university-affiliated APA-accredited clinical program with research and clinical training in neuropsychology and aging. Faculty are committed to excellence in research and training, with the expectation that faculty maintain a productive program of research with commitment to obtain external funding. Clinical instruction and supervision in the department’s community clinic (CU Aging Center) may be part of the teaching load. Preference will be given for those eligible for Colorado licensure and for board certification in neuropsychology. The sixteen faculty in the Psychology Department currently offer an undergraduate degree, MA programs in clinical and experimental, and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology with a curricular emphasis in geropsychology (more information is available at http://www.uccs.edu/psych).

 

Applicants should apply online at http://www.jobsatcu.com and search for Job Posting Number 811249. Applicants must submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, research statement, teaching statement, representative research publications (up to 3), and unofficial transcripts for consideration.  Three letters of recommendation should be sent by the reviewer to:  Chair, Clinical Neuropsychology Search Committee, Department of Psychology, University of Colorado, 1420 Austin Bluffs Parkway, Colorado Springs, CO  80918. Women and minorities are strongly encouraged to apply. Review of applications begins November 15, 2010, but applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
