The Department of Psychological & Brain Sciences at Boston University invites applications for a tenure-track position at the Assistant Professor level in Clinical Psychology to begin July 2022. We seek candidates conducting research in Behavioral Medicine/Health Psychology, which may include specialties defined by topic area (e.g., health disparities, mobile health interventions), disease (e.g., HIV/AIDS, chronic pain), or methodology (e.g., ecological momentary assessment, big data analytics). The successful candidate will be expected to establish a vigorous, externally supported program of research, engage in research training, and teach courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels. The greater Boston area provides an extensive range of collaborative research opportunities in academic and medical settings, and our department has established close ties to several surrounding hospitals and community health centers.

Boston University expects excellence in teaching and in research and is committed to building a culturally, racially, and ethnically diverse scholarly community. The Department holds the view that the diversity of our faculty, staff, and students is vitally important to the excellence of our research and academic programs. The successful candidate will be offered a competitive salary and start-up funding. Applications and supporting materials will only be accepted at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/19728. Applicants should upload a curriculum vita, a statement of teaching experience and interests, a statement of research interests, and copies of three representative scholarly papers, and should arrange for three letters of reference to be submitted.
