Published on 9/26/2025
The Department of Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Colorado Boulder (http://www.colorado.edu/psych-neuro/) invites applications for two tenure-track positions to begin Fall 2026. We seek faculty members with high level training, expertise, and teaching interest in undergraduate research methods and/or statistics courses as well as a proven track record of or high potential for the inclusion of undergraduate research assistants in their work.

We prefer an individual whose substantive research area meaningfully engages with and contributes to the strengths of one of four graduate program areas: Social Psychology, Cognitive Psychology, Clinical Psychology, or Behavioral, Psychiatric, and Statistical Genetics (BPSG). The BPSG area specifically seeks a faculty member specializing in quantitative genetics, which could include family-based or statistical genomic approaches. Ideal candidates will have expertise in neurodegeneration and aging; applicants with expertise outside these areas are still encouraged to apply.

The teaching requirements for this position include our undergraduate research methods course and/or our undergraduate introductory statistics course, along with undergraduate and graduate content seminars, undergraduate lab and methods courses, or other classes in service to the department’s teaching mission. For this position, successful applicants should have an outstanding record of research achievement, evidence of or potential for extramural funding, and a strong commitment to undergraduate and graduate education. A Ph.D. in psychology, neuroscience, or cognitive science is strongly preferred.

CU is an Equal Opportunity Employer and complies with all applicable federal, state, and local laws governing nondiscrimination in employment. We are committed to creating a workplace where all individuals are treated with respect and dignity, and we encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply, including protected veterans and individuals with disabilities.
