[visionlist] FACULTY POSITION (OPEN RANK)

[Barb Fisher]

The Department of Cognitive Science in the Krieger School of Arts and
Sciences and the School of Education at Johns Hopkins University seek a
faculty candidate, at any level, with an exceptional record of conducting
and directing research in the area of the University's new Science of
Learning initiative.  Research approaches and content areas of particular
interest include learning, development, and plasticity in the areas of
language, visual or speech perception, and spatial representation. The ideal
candidate should carry out research that makes substantive contact with
theory, uses experimental, developmental, linguistic, neuroscience, and/or
computational approaches, and has implications for application within the
broad field of learning. The appointment will be joint between the Cognitive
Science Department and the School of Education, with the expectation of
responsibilities in both, but will have tenure-track and/or tenured status
within the Cognitive Science Department. Candidates should be strongly
interdisciplinary, prepared to carry out effective teaching, student
supervision, and collaboration in a formally-oriented, highly
interdisciplinary Cognitive Science department, and eager to take advantage
of collaborations with the School of Education and its connection to diverse
student populations in area public and private schools. Candidates should be
capable of making significant contributions to the Science of Learning
initiative involving the Cognitive Science Department, the School of
Education, and other units; further faculty growth in this area is
anticipated. The Cognitive Science Department and the School of Education
have a strong commitment to achieving diversity among faculty and staff. We
are particularly interested in receiving applications from members of
underrepresented groups and strongly encourage women and persons of color to
apply for this position. Applications are due by November 1, 2012.  

Johns Hopkins University actively encourages interest from minorities and
women.

 

Please send cover letter, CV, research statement, and three letters of
recommendation. Please send electronic submissions only. Submit to:
