The Department of Psychology at the Munroe Meyer Institute for Genetics and Rehabilitation is recruiting a Ph.D. or PsyD. in Child-Clinical or School Psychology. The department is a decidedly behavioral group of clinical educators and clinical researchers who seek to incorporate training and research activities into clinical service delivery, both in traditional center-based behavioral health clinics and in integrated primary care settings. Rank will depend on qualifications. Clinical activities center on delivery of assessment and treatment behavioral health services to neurotypical children and adolescents with behavioral health needs as well as those with intellectual and developmental disabilities, including autism. Experience with behavioral parent training is highly desired.
All faculty members at MMI play an important role in education and provide clinical supervision for postdoctoral fellows and for interns from the APA accredited Nebraska Internship Consortium. Some faculty also teach courses and supervise practica for our master degree program that prepares graduates for both licensure in Nebraska and certification as BCBA. Therefore preference will be given to candidates who are both licensed (or license eligible) in Nebraska and who also hold a BCBA certification. Faculty members are also encouraged to develop and participate in clinical research. Specific areas of research interest are less important than promise of success. All candidates should have a clinical internship from APA/CPA-accredited programs in psychology.
