Position description

The University of California, Berkeley School of Education (BSE) seeks a tenure-track faculty member at the Assistant Professor (N/T) level focusing on School Psychology. We strongly encourage applications from both early career candidates (for example, those who are currently completing a PhD program), as well as those who currently hold an Assistant Professor position.

The successful candidate will become a member of the School Psychology Program's core faculty in the School of Education. They will be required to teach courses that meet the Standards of Accreditation, advise students, and contribute to service in the School Psychology Program, the School of Education, and the University of California. Specific areas of research and teaching specialization are open.

This new faculty member will demonstrate the ability to conduct research, supervise graduate student research and field-based experiences, and teach graduate courses in an APA- accredited School Psychology Program. There may also be the possibility to teach undergraduate courses in the Education major/minor.

This new professor may join and collaborate with Berkeley colleagues across other departments and schools who are active in the Psychology and Human Development arenas.

The department is committed to addressing the family needs of faculty, including dual-career couples and single parents. We are also interested in candidates who have had non-traditional career paths or who have taken time off for family reasons, or who have achieved excellence in careers outside academia. For information about potential relocation to Berkeley, or career needs of accompanying partners and spouses, please visit: http://ofew.berkeley.edu/new-faculty.

In the Berkeley School of Education our research, teaching, and practice approaches support a vision of public education that has as its goal equity and inclusion at all levels - classroom, school, community, district, state, national, and global - and that positively impacts personal growth and social transformation. BSE values and centers diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) as articulated in the following principles of community: there is an inherent relationship between excellence and diversity, and we seek relational equity in all our practices across the School; we support structures and policies that ensure meaningful access to and engagement in opportunities to learn. BSE employs an expansive notion of DEI that is concerned with maintaining an inclusive and representative community that includes members of historically racialized, marginalized, and yet resilient communities, including trans and LGBTQIA+ communities and individuals with dis/abilities.

The University of California is committed to creating and maintaining a community dedicated to the advancement, application, and transmission of knowledge and creative endeavors through academic excellence, where all individuals who participate in University programs and activities can work and learn together in a safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. Consistent with this commitment, UC Berkeley requires all applicants for Senate faculty positions to complete, sign, and upload an Authorization of Information Release form into AP Recruit as part of their application. If an applicant does not include the signed authorization, the application will be considered incomplete, and as with any incomplete application, will not receive further consideration. Although all applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire application, applicants will only be subject to reference checks if and when they are selected as the candidate to whom the hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer.
