The Department of Psychology in the Dornsife College of Letters, Arts and Sciences at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles is seeking applications for a tenure track position with the rank of Assistant Professor.

We seek candidates with an innovative program of research in any area of clinical science. Current faculty interests are broad, ranging from child, couple, and family processes to clinical aging, mood disorders, culture and race, close relationships, technology and mobile health, trauma, climate change, and psychological intervention and assessment. Our program is accredited by the American Psychological Association and the Psychological Clinical Science Accreditation System (PCSAS).

The appointment is expected to begin in August 2024. Candidates must have completed their Ph.D. and demonstrate an excellent doctoral and/or post-doctoral record that includes a strong track record of publications and potential to secure extramural funding.

The department aims to foster a diverse intellectual community and we strongly encourage applications from all underrepresented groups.

Applicants should submit a cover letter; current CV; representative publications; the names of 3-5 people who could provide letters of references; and three separate statements describing research, teaching, and service accomplishments, with the service statement explicitly highlighting contributions to equity, diversity, and inclusion.
