The UMSL Department of Education Sciences and Professional Programs in the College of Education invites applications for an open rank tenure track faculty position in School Psychology beginning August 2019. This is an exciting opportunity to join our NASP-Approved School Psychology Program and collaborate with other educator preparation programs across the college. The College of Education has strong commitments to community partnership and social justice, and we seek a faculty colleague who shares these values.
The UMSL School Psychology Program emphasizes prevention science, problem-solving consultation, and culturally-responsive practice with a special focus on mental/behavioral health services in schools.
