TWO OPEN-RANK POSITION IN DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY - UNIVERSITY OF WATERLOO
- CANADA

The Department of Psychology at the University of Waterloo invites
applications for two tenure-track assistant to full positions in
Developmental Psychology. We are interested in applicants from all areas of
developmental psychology.

The successful candidates will be expected to maintain an active research
program and to supervise graduate and undergraduate students. The positions
include a 12-month salary, with a teaching load of 3 (12 week) courses per
year. Successful candidates must have a Ph.D. in Developmental Psychology or
related area.

The Department of Psychology at the University of Waterloo (located
approximately 1 hour west of Toronto) is a large, friendly,
research-intensive department with over 35 faculty, 20 staff members, and
105 graduate students enrolled in Masters and Ph.D programs. The department
houses a laboratory preschool. The University of Waterloo offers a full
range of programs in the Humanities, Social Sciences, Natural Sciences,
Computing Sciences, Applied Health Sciences and Engineering.

The University of Waterloo is located in Southwestern Ontario in what is
currently, economically, the fastest growing region in Canada. The
Kitchener-Waterloo area is a high-tech, culturally diverse (it is a top
destination for new immigrants), and friendly place to live. The area offers
attractions such as the Stratford Shakespeare Festival, a vibrant music and
arts scene (it is home to Canada's national Clay and Glass gallery), many
community festivals and events, as well as beautiful parks, trails,
wilderness areas, and traditional farmer's markets. Waterloo is home to two
major universities, a community college, The Centre for International
Governance Innovation, and the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics.
Waterloo is also a high-tech destination and home to over 100 high-tech
companies (e.g., RIM). A community based Research and Technology Park is
under construction north of the university.

The anticipated start date for the position is July 1, 2009. Review of
applications will begin on November 17, 2008 and we will continue to
consider applications until the position is filled. Applicants should
electronically submit a curriculum vitae, a statement of teaching and
research interests, and reprints of recent papers to:
developmentalposition@psychology.uwaterloo.ca. They should also arrange for
3 confidential letters of reference to be sent electronically. Any
questions regarding this position can be directed to Dr. Ori Friedman at
friedman@uwaterloo.ca or (519) 888-4567 ext. 33054.

The University of Waterloo encourages applications from all qualified
individuals, including women, members of visible minorities, native people,
and persons with disabilities. All qualified candidates are encouraged to
apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority.
