George Fox University's Graduate School of Clinical Psychology announces a full-time, tenure-track faculty position. As a professional graduate program, we offer a 12-month modified contract: 9 month core faculty role (May-August), with additional summer research support to dissertation students, as needed.

About the Job:

The responsibilities of this position include teaching doctoral students in generalist clinical psychology coursework. As part of a program with a strong emphasis on mentoring, this faculty role also involves leading a weekly small clinical mentor group composed of students at various stages of training. In addition, each faculty member leads a focused research team that includes students across training levels.

All university faculty participate in administrative service, either within the department or through university committees (e.g., Admissions Committee, Orientation Committee, and sponsorship of student-led special interest groups). Finally, tenure-track faculty are expected to develop and sustain an active program of scholarship.
