Teaching Faculty Fellows are involved in teaching, advising, and research supervision of graduate students. Additionally, they participate in didactic training on inclusive teaching and learning designs, strength-based pedagogical approaches, and culturally empowering instructional strategies. Fellows actively engage in professional development, scholarly, and program evaluation activities. They also receive faculty and peer mentorship throughout their enrollment in the program. Of particular interest to the Fellowship are candidates with a background—or interest in developing expertise—in consultation, personality and cognitive assessment, program development and evaluation, and substance use disorders. We are seeking applicants with interest in addressing disparities in these domains and/or whose work has focused on behavioral health equity for unserved groups and underserved communities. Fellows may teach relevant courses as well as other generalist foundational courses in the Clinical Psychology Department.

Qualifications

Candidates must possess a PsyD or a PhD in Clinical or Counseling Psychology from an APA-accredited institution, have completed an APA-accredited internship, have earned their degrees within the past three years (through August 2023), have teaching and clinical experience, and be licensed or license-eligible in Massachusetts. A demonstrated record of relevant scholarly work is preferred, including community service and engagement, organizational leadership, and innovative and entrepreneurial activities. Successful candidates will also have a demonstrated commitment to promoting diversity, inclusion, and multicultural competence in an educational and work environment and must be willing to contribute to the College’s strategic plan of inclusion. The Department welcomes applications from individuals who may have had nontraditional career paths, who may have taken time off for family reasons, or who have achieved excellence in careers outside of academia.

Application Procedure

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until all positions are filled. Interested candidates are strongly encouraged to apply by Friday, April 7, 2023. Applicants for the Teaching Faculty Fellowship must submit:

1. A detailed cover letter describing their background and qualifications; teaching, clinical, and research interests; demonstrated commitment to working with historically excluded and underserved communities; dedication to pursuing a career in academia; and potential to add to the diversity of the College.
2. A résumé/curriculum vitae.
