The Department of Psychology at Hunter College, City University of New York invites applicants for a position at the rank of Doctoral Lecturer in Clinical Psychology, Developmental Psychology, or Social Psychology beginning in Fall, 2026. Our department is one of the largest in the college, and we are a collaborative community with a diverse faculty and student body.

The doctoral lecturer is a teaching-focused position requiring an annual course load equivalent of 24 credits (6-8 courses per academic year) at the undergraduate level. This teaching load will routinely include two of the department’s three core courses:
Introduction to Psychology, Psychological Statistics, and/or Research Methods. Additional courses taught will include introductory and/or upper-level courses in clinical, developmental, and/or social psychology, based upon the successful candidate’s expertise and departmental needs. Evening and weekend teaching may occasionally be required.

The doctoral lecturer teaching load also includes providing one-on-one or small-group mentorship of undergraduate students who seek to obtain experience in research or complete capstone projects (i.e., Honor’s Theses). This will include serving as the primary research mentor for 3-6 students enrolled in independent study or honor’s thesis credit. This mentorship contributes toward the required teaching load. Additional responsibilities may be assigned by the Department Chairperson, including service on departmental, divisional, and College-wide committees.
