Open-rank, open-area positions at UConn

  • 1.  Open-rank, open-area positions at UConn

    Posted 09-14-2016 22:38
    Exciting time at UConn as we search for 3 new faculty to join our department.  Note that willingness to teach Intro Psych is a must.  An I/O person could fit into the preferred areas of expertise in many ways:  systems science (e.g., teams, multi-level), quantitative methods (e.g., SEM, IRT), cognitive science (e.g., decision-making), neuroscience (e.g., organizational neuroscience), or health science (e.g., occupational health psychology).  Closing date is 12/1/16, but application review is beginning immediately.

    Please circulate and I'm happy to answer any questions!
