The Department of Psychology anticipates making a tenure-track appointment at the
assistant professor level to begin July 1, 2019.
We seek candidates with expertise in developmental cognitive science, broadly
conceived. Our interest is less in specific topic areas or methods than in innovation and
excellence in the applicant’s research program. For instance, in addition to experimental
behavioral research on human children, successful candidates might employ cognitive
neuroscience, animal cognition, cross-cultural ethnographic work or computational
modeling, among approaches. Topics of study might include perception, action
planning, conceptual representation, social cognition, reasoning, decision-making
or language, among other topics. We seek candidates whose research complements
research already going on in the Department, taking it in clearly new directions.
