The Ferkauf Graduate School of Psychology at Yeshiva University is seeking to fill an Assistant Professor position in the School-Clinical Child Psy.D. Program. The position is a 9-month tenure-track faculty line beginning in September 2022. We are looking for an outstanding candidate with training and scholarship in either school or clinical child psychology. The position will involve: (a) research/scholarship in a substantive area related to school psychology or child and adolescent psychology, (b) graduate teaching in areas of expertise, (c) supervision of doctoral research and (d) related program responsibilities.
Applicants with graduate teaching and advising experience and a strong record of research productivity and potential for external funding are sought. Area of scholarship is open, although we are particularly interested in candidates with an established research program involving diverse and/or underserved populations that fits with the Program’s commitment to train psychologists in the framework of anti-racism and social justice to disrupt structural inequities and amplify the voices of those historically marginalized in our field. Ferkauf encourages applications from women, Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC), protected persons and others committed to a diverse community that expands our teaching and research mission. The candidate should be a licensed psychologist or license eligible in New York State.
