Department of Psychology, University of Pittsburgh
The Department of Psychology at the University of Pittsburgh invites applications for a tenure-track position at the level of assistant professor in the area of cognitive psychology, pending budgetary approval, to begin Fall of 2025.
We are particularly interested in interdisciplinary candidates with research interests that would strengthen bridges between the cognitive psychology program and one or more of the other Psychology program areas (social, bio-health, clinical, developmental) and/or other departments at the University of Pittsburgh. The interdisciplinarity might be realized through topics or methods that span areas, applications of cognitive psychology methods or theories to other domains, or other creative ways to connect fields. We especially welcome research into issues that connect with diversity, equity, belonging, and inclusion.
The Psychology Department is committed to excellence in research and teaching at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. The department offers five graduate training programs: Biological and Health, Clinical, Cognitive, Developmental, and Social, along with cross-training opportunities and connections with interdisciplinary centers such as the LRDCand CNBC. The interdisciplinary nature of psychological science is reflected in both faculty research interests and collaborations, and in training options afforded to graduate students.
For full consideration, applications must be submitted by Nov 1st, 2024. Complete applications will include a cover letter, CV, statement of research and teaching interests, diversity statement, up to three representative publications, and the names of three prospective referees. Other materials may be requested following the initial candidate review. Candidates with a PhD in Psychology, Cognitive Science, or a related discipline relevant to the study of human cognition are invited to apply; candidates must have earned a PhD by the start date of the position.
For questions, please contact the chair of the search committee, Dr. Ben Rottman (rottman@pitt.edu).
