Subject: [COGDEVSOC] Tenure track position in Psychology of Education at
Georgetown University
To: CogDev Listserv <cogdevsoc@list.mail.virginia.edu>


The Department of Psychology is seeking to fill a tenure-track assistant
professor position effective August 1, 2013. We are interested in
candidates whose research explores influences on educational outcomes,
including those at the elementary, middle and high school levels, as well
as early educational outcomes. For example, research programs could
investigate school culture and quality; family environments and parental
involvement; race, ethnicity, and country of origin; and implications for
and effects of public policy. Candidates with specific interests in science
and math outcomes are encouraged to apply. Although not limited to these
areas, the applicant’s expertise should fall within the scope of the
department’s strength in Human Development and Public Policy. More
information about this specialty area and existing programs of faculty
research can be found elsewhere on our website. Excellent teaching skills,
a strong record of publication and of successful attempts to secure
external funding will be advantageous. Advanced quantitative analysis
skills are also highly desirable. The candidate should be prepared to teach
introductory level undergraduate courses as well as an undergraduate
seminar. The ability and willingness to teach one of the Department’s two
basic courses, General Psychology and Research Methods and Statistics,
would also be greatly welcomed. The candidate will also be expected to
contribute to the graduate program in Human Development and Public Policy.

The Georgetown University Department of Psychology offers an undergraduate
major in psychology, and also hosts an undergraduate Honors Program. In
addition, the College of Arts and Sciences is newly introducing a course of
study leading to an undergraduate minor in education. At the graduate
level, the Department hosts a program leading to the Ph.D. in Developmental
Science with a concentration either in Lifespan Cognitive Neuroscience or
in Human Development and Public Policy. The department emphasizes
interdisciplinary alliances with other areas of strength at Georgetown
including the Georgetown Public Policy Institute<http://gppi.georgetown.edu/>,
Georgetown Law Center <http://law.georgetown.edu/>, and Georgetown School
of Foreign Service <http://sfs.georgetown.edu/>. More information about the
Department, its current faculty, and its various programs can be found
elsewhere on our website. Review of applications will begin immediately and
continue until the position is filled.

Please send a letter of interest, a curriculum vita, statements of research
and teaching interests, three letters of reference, and re-prints of
representative sample of published works to: Fathali Moghaddam, Ph.D.,
Search Committee Chair, Department of Psychology, 306 White Gravenor Hall,
Georgetown University, 37th and O Streets, NW, Washington, D.C., 20057.
Applications will be accepted until the position is filled, but we aim to
complete the search as early as possible. For electronic submissions please
e-mail your materials to “developmental.public.policy@gmail.com.” For any
additional questions please contact Brad Kelly, Administrative Assistant,
at btk27@georgetown.edu.
