Positions (2) and (4) should be of particular interest to this group:


The Department of Psychology at Colorado State University invites  
applications for four tenure-track faculty positions with an  
appointment date of August 15, 2006. All positions require a Ph.D. or  
equivalent in psychology or a closely related field, an active  
research program leading to peer-reviewed publications, commitment  
and potential to attract external funding, and potential for  
excellence in graduate and undergraduate instruction. The four  
positions are: (1) APPLIED SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY. This position is at the  
rank of assistant professor. The philosophy of the Applied Social  
Psychology Program is to use social psychological principles (i.e.,  
theory and empirical foundations) and strong research methods to  
investigate socially based issues and to evaluate ameliorative  
efforts associated with these issues. The successful candidate must  
have an active research program in environmental and/or health issues  
that can contribute to our existing strengths in these areas, as well  
as evidence of the ability to teach social psychology. Preference  
will be given to candidates who can also teach environmental  
psychology. (2) COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY. This position is at the rank of  
assistant professor. Area of specialization within cognitive  
psychology is open, but preference will be given to candidates who  
could contribute to the Program’s strengths in human learning  
(including concept learning and skill learning) and human memory. The  
ideal candidate will have a range of behavioral research skills and  
conduct basic empirical research that is closely integrated with  
theory. Teaching responsibilities would include graduate and  
undergraduate courses in cognitive psychology. (3) INDUSTRIAL/ 
ORGANIZATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY. This position is at the rank of assistant  
professor. The successful candidate must hold expertise in  
Organizational Psychology and Psychometric Theory. Research interests  
might include, but are not limited to, such topics as work and  
organizational attitudes, organizational theory and effectiveness,  
organizational design and change, leadership, and team effectiveness.  
The candidate will be expected to teach at the graduate and  
undergraduate level and must demonstrate the ability to teach  
organizational psychology and psychometric theory. (4) APPLIED SOCIAL  
PSYCHOLOGY, BEHAVIORAL NEUROSCIENCE, or COGNITIVE PSYCHOLOGY. This  
position is at the rank of assistant professor, and is open to  
candidates with a research emphasis in Applied Social Psychology,  
Behavioral Neuroscience, or Cognitive Psychology. Area of  
specialization within these fields is open, but preference will be  
given to candidates who could contribute to the existing strengths of  
our programs (see Department website for more information). Teaching  
responsibilities will include undergraduate Research Methods and  
courses in the candidate’s area of specialization. If a candidate  
wishes to be considered for this position as well as one of the other  
positions described above, two separate applications should be  
submitted. ALL FOUR POSITIONS: Additional details about each of the  
four positions can be found at http://www.colostate.edu/Depts/ 
Psychology/. The teaching load is appropriate for a top-tier research  
university and is adjusted for grant activity. Depending upon the  
candidate’s interests and background, other possible course  
assignments may include General Psychology, History of Psychology,  
Research Methods, or graduate statistics. Application material (cover  
letter, curriculum vitae, preprints/reprints, statements of research  
and teaching interests, evidence of teaching effectiveness, if  
available, and e-mail addresses for three referees) should be  
submitted on-line at http://www.natsci.colostate.edu/searches/psych/.  
The applicant should request three reference letters. Referees will  
be sent an access code (using the contract information provided by  
the applicant) for submitting the letters on-line. For full  
consideration, materials must be received by December 8, 2005, but  
applications will be accepted until the position is filled. The  
Department and University have a strong commitment to diversity;  
ethnic minorities and women are encouraged to apply. CSU is an EO/AA  
employer.
