The Vanderbilt University Department of Psychology and Human Development has two tenure-line positions in the areas of CLINCAL and DEVELOPMENTAL psychological science. The department is composed of internationally recognized scholars who work to increase the understanding and application of basic psychological processes related to the development of typical and atypical cognitions, behaviors, and emotions in family, school, and other contexts. We seek candidates whose research addresses cross-cutting themes in our department through interdisciplinary research focused on (1) basic processes of emotional, cognitive, and social development, (2) the implications of such basic research for developmental psychopathology, learning, education, and developmental disorders, and (3) the translation of basic findings to inform interventions designed to prevent or treat problems of development, mental health, physical well-being, and learning. Primary responsibilities of these faculty positions include establishing an active program of research, teaching and mentoring undergraduate and graduate students, and service to the department, university, and the field. We especially encourage applications from underrepresented minorities.
The Clinical Psychological Science Program invites applications for a tenure track Assistant Professor position in clinical psychological science, with an emphasis in child/adolescent psychopathology. The Vanderbilt Clinical Science Program is nationally recognized for research on the etiology, treatment, and prevention of psychopathology, developmental disorders, and health problems in children and adolescents. We are interested in clinical researchers whose work focuses on the interface of neurobiological processes (e.g., clinical neuroscience, psychophysiology, genetics) with affective, cognitive, and behavioral dimensions that underlie new and emerging models of psychopathology (e.g., Research Domain Criteria: RDoC) and has translational implications for intervention, developmental psychopathology, developmental disorders, developmental clinical neuroscience, or pediatric psychology. We seek an individual with a strong record of high quality and methodologically rigorous research, sustained productivity, potential for obtaining extramural funding, and teaching effectiveness. A Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from an APA-accredited clinical program and completion of an APA-accredited internship is required.
Our Developmental Science Program is seeking an outstanding developmental scientist for a tenure track position at the assistant professor rank and will consider candidates in any area of cognitive development. Our program goal is to build on our strength in cognitive development by adding a colleague whose research expands our range of expertise. Candidates whose research focuses on learning processes and developmental mechanisms, education or educational neuroscience, social cognition, or adolescence will receive special consideration. The Developmental Sciences area consists of 8-10 full-time faculty whose strengths are complemented by professors in other units in the university, including the Department of Psychology, Educational Neuroscience, Special Education, and Teaching & Learning.
