Assistant Professor of Psychology (Clinical Psychology)

Antioch College is seeking applications for a tenure-track position in psychology to begin August 15, 2022.

Antioch College seeks a candidate in clinical psychology to contribute to a student-centered interdisciplinary undergraduate liberal arts curriculum. A Ph.D. in psychology is required. Evidence of successful teaching at the undergraduate level is strongly preferred. Antioch College also welcomes candidates with professional experience in a clinical setting. The successful candidate will work with a new social psychology faculty to build a dynamic psychology program at Antioch College.

Candidates should demonstrate a commitment to rigorous undergraduate education and the ability to develop innovative and interdisciplinary courses in psychology. Candidates should also be prepared to teach within a Self-Designed Major curriculum that emphasizes the links between academic knowledge and experiential/applied learning. The teaching load for this position is six courses per academic year on the 2-2-2 quarter system, with some flexibility in the load distribution through optional one-month block courses.

The successful candidate will have broad training in psychology and will be able to teach a range of psychology courses, including survey courses (e.g. General Psychology) and courses in their areas of specialization. Scholars with critically oriented and interdisciplinary research agendas are highly desired. Topical areas of specialization include (but are not limited to): psychopathology, theories of psychotherapy, human sexuality and gender, race and ethnicity, identity, social and political factors in mental health, culturally-sensitive interventions, and psychological tests and assessments.

In addition to offering courses within the discipline, the candidate is expected to contribute to a collaborative General Education Program. The successful candidate is expected to maintain an active research agenda, participate in program development, provide academic advising, guide students in developing their Self-Designed Majors, and oversee Senior Capstone Projects.

Antioch College was founded as a new kind of American college, a place where students seek to "win victories for humanity" and engage in real-world problem solving in the classroom, campus and community, and through our renowned cooperative education program.

Guided by talented teachers and mentors, students own their education through a robust Self-Designed Major program that encourages students to explore the transdisciplinary spaces within and between the humanities, sciences, arts, and social sciences.

Antioch College embraces diversity as a core value, and considers it fundamental to excellence in education. We are an educational community dedicated to the pursuit of social justice that intentionally and consistently supports diverse and inclusive practices. We seek candidates who can contribute to Antioch's mission through curricular development and innovation that fosters social justice, cultural competencies and understanding of diversity.
