Rank and salary are commensurate with experience and the benefits are highly competitive.

We are open to part-time candidates who can’t commit to full-time employment.

William James College endorses a framework of inclusive excellence, which recognizes that institutional excellence comes from fully engaging with diversity in all aspects of institutional activities.

Responsibilities:

Core faculty members are involved in teaching, advising, and research supervision. Additionally, there is the expectation of committee work and scholarly productivity. We are seeking applicants who can teach courses in the School Psychology MA/CAGS program. Qualified applicants for this position should ideally have experience in teaching courses at the graduate level, related to the various domains of school psychology practice. The successful applicant may also teach specialized courses depending on their relevant expertise and may exercise supervision of practicum students and interns. Applicants will also serve on dissertations committees across the college in their specific area of expertise. Applicants with an interest in addressing disparities in assessments and/or whose work has focused on behavioral health equity for unserved and underserved communities will be of particular interest.

Qualifications:

The ideal candidate will hold a doctoral degree in School Psychology or a related field and have teaching experience. Applicants should preferably be licensed or license-eligible in Massachusetts as a School Psychologist and maintain some involvement in clinical practice or consultation. A demonstrated record of scholarly work defined broadly (e.g., community engagement, educational leadership, innovation, investigation, and research) is preferred. Successful applicants will also have a demonstrated commitment to promoting diversity, inclusion, and multicultural competence in an educational and work environment and must be willing to contribute to the College’s strategic plan of inclusion. Candidates must be available to teach in-person classes and participate in on-campus activities. The department welcomes applications from individuals who may have had nontraditional career paths, or who may have taken time off for family reasons, or who have achieved excellence in careers outside of academia.

Applicants MUST be eligible for employment in the United States without requiring work visa sponsorship.
