This is a tenure-track academic year appointment. The expected start date is August 29, 2022. Successful candidates must have a Ph.D. in a relevant discipline by the time the position starts, and a commitment to undergraduate and graduate teaching.

The University of Michigan and the Department of Psychology value contributions to diversity, equity, and inclusion (https://diversity.umich.edu/). Please include with your application a separate diversity statement that describes how your research, teaching, and/or service in the past, present, and/or future embraces these values and might further DEI aims.
