The Department of Psychology at
Smith College invites applications for a two-year postdoctoral fellowship in
psychology beginning July 1, 2014. Under
the supervision of Patricia Marten DiBartolo, Ph.D., this postdoctoral fellowship
offers a combined teaching and research position at a selective liberal arts
college. The candidate will conduct independent research with the focus aligned
to Dr. DiBartolo’s research programs in perfectionism and anxiety, especially
in youth, as well as learning outcomes assessment within classes and for our
undergraduate psychology majors. Teaching responsibilities are two courses per
year, to include contributions to the department’s research methods course and
a course within the candidate’s area of expertise that complements the offerings
in our department. A Ph.D. in clinical psychology is strongly preferred,
although other related areas of specialization (e.g., counseling; social work; applied
developmental) may be considered. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in hand or all
requirements for the degree fulfilled by the start of the appointment. A
commitment to undergraduate research is essential.
Our psychology and related faculty
have expertise across a wide range of clinically relevant topics, including
autism spectrum disorders, risky alcohol behaviors, health psychology, positive
psychology, hoarding and obsessive compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress
disorder, transitions following divorce and many others. In addition, the Five College Consortium, comprised
of Smith, Amherst, Mount Holyoke, and Hampshire Colleges and the University of
Massachusetts, Amherst, provides a rich intellectual and cultural life for
faculty and students, as well as collegial opportunities for teaching and
research.
Submit your application at
http://apply.interfolio.com/23054 with a cover letter, curriculum
vitae, a teaching philosophy statement, a statement identifying how your own programmatic
research converges with Dr. DiBartolo’s scholarship, and three confidential
letters of recommendation. Review of applications will begin on November 30,
2013. Smith College is an equal opportunity employer encouraging excellence
through diversity.
