(Tenure-Track/Tenured) Professor, Developmental Psychology

Job no: 510319

Position type: Faculty

Location: New York

Categories: Academic Advising/Support, Education/Instructional, Research

Job Summary/Basic Function:

Teachers College, Columbia University is recruiting a faculty member to assume a full-time tenured/tenure-track faculty position, beginning Fall, 2023, in the area of Adolescence and Youth Development. We are especially interested in mid-career or senior scholars with a proven track record of federal grant funding (i.e., NIH, NSF, IES), who are willing to participate in programmatic leadership for our masters and doctoral degree programs in developmental psychology.

Ideally, the candidate’s research would examine how context and experience contribute to disparities in learning and life outcomes broadly defined across social, cultural, emotional, cognitive, and/or linguistic domains in adolescence and young adulthood. Likely candidates would be psychologists, but we would also consider other disciplines (e.g., neuroscience, education, economics, policy, sociology, linguistics, anthropology) where the candidate had experience as a member of interdisciplinary teams.

Candidates will teach graduate courses in adolescent development, including prevention and intervention approaches for adolescents; the transition from adolescence to adulthood; and other courses suited to the individual’s expertise. The search committee is especially interested in candidates who, through their research, teaching, and/or service, will contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community.

Candidates should apply online and include a cover letter, vita, statements of research and teaching interests, and the names of three individuals who can be contacted as references. Review of applications will commence on September 15, 2022, and will continue until the position is filled.

Teachers College is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive academic community and to providing equal opportunity in employment. All qualified applicants will receive consideration regardless of race, color, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity or gender expression), religion, creed, national origin, age, citizenship, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, veteran status, or any other legally protected status.
