Job description

We are seeking to fill two 9-month assistant professor faculty positions within the new PsyD program, beginning in Fall 2027. Housed within the College of Humanities, Education, and Social Sciences, ISU’s Department of Psychology offers a BS and a BA in psychology, a minor in Applied Behavior Analysis, a PhD in Psychological Science, an APA-accredited PhD in Clinical Psychology (scientist-practitioner model), and a new PsyD in Clinical Psychology (located on the ISU Meridian campus). Applicants must have received their degree from an accredited clinical psychology (or closely related discipline) doctoral program and be license-eligible in the State of Idaho. As core members of the department’s PsyD Clinical Training Committee, these faculty members will teach graduate classes, provide clinical supervision, perform service activities, and mentor students in the program. Competitive applicants will have a commitment to excellence in teaching, mentoring, and clinical supervision of graduate students. Clinical expertise with an integrated behavioral health and/or telehealth focus is welcome. These positions can be filled as tenure-track or not tenure-track positions, based on applicant interests. If they are tenure-track, a research component to the workload will be included; if not tenure-track, then a larger teaching component will be included.

These positions are not eligible for new visa sponsorship at this time. Candidates who already hold valid U.S. work authorization may be considered.

Key Responsibilities

These faculty members will serve as core faculty for the PsyD program, teach graduate courses, provide clinical supervision, and mentor graduate students in the program. Research components to the workload will depend on if a tenure-track position is desired.

• Tenure track: it is expected that the faculty member will teach one traditional graduate course per semester (Fall & Spring), with the remaining portions of the workload being dedicated to research, clinical supervision, student mentorship/advising, and other professional service (each equivalent in workload to one course per semester).
• Not tenure track: it is expected that the faculty member will teach two traditional graduate courses per semester (Fall & Spring), with the remaining portions of the workload being dedicated to clinical supervision, student mentorship/advising, and other professional service (each equivalent in workload to one course per semester).

Minimum Qualifications

• PhD or PsyD in Clinical Psychology or a doctorate in a closely related discipline (e.g., Doctor of Behavioral Health, PhD in Counseling Psychology) from an accredited program
• License-eligible in the State of Idaho

Preferred Qualifications

• Commitment to excellence and experience in teaching and mentoring
• Integrated behavioral health and/or telehealth experience/expertise
• For one of the two positions, there is a preference for someone who can teach and supervise graduate students in assessment

Additional Information

• Current curriculum vitae
• A cover letter summarizing research, clinical, and teaching interests
• Graduate transcripts (unofficial is acceptable until position is confirmed)
• Representative publications (up to six)
• Three letters of recommendation (submitted by letter writers [e-mail])

This position will remain open until it is filled; however, priority consideration will be given to applications received on or before October 1, 2026. Salary will be between $72,000 and $77,250 per year, commensurate with education and experience.
