"Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychology"

The Department of Psychology at Hofstra University invites applications for a full-time, tenure-track Assistant Professor beginning September 1, 2026. We welcome applications from candidates engaged in high-quality research in Clinical Psychology, including but not limited to psychopathology, psychotherapy, and assessment. We are particularly interested in scholars whose research and clinical interests will complement existing faculty expertise and deepen course offerings within the Psychology Department.

The successful candidate will be expected to establish an independent research program, engage in research training and clinical supervision of doctoral students, and teach courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels (18 credits/academic year). Candidates should be strongly committed to excellence in teaching, clinical supervision, and scholarly research and ultimately must be license-eligible in New York. The primary responsibility will be participating in our APA-accredited PhD program in Clinical Psychology (including potential administrative roles in the future such as DCT or Director of externship or internship placement) as well as departmental, college and university activities.

There are a variety of collaborative research resources available to psychology faculty on and off campus. A qualified candidate may have shared access to the department's new neurophysiology lab, which houses a B-Alert X24 20-channel mobile EEG system, BIOPAC functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) system and BIOPAC equipment for measurement of skin conductance and heart rate variability. Faculty can also request access to the Behavioral Research in Business Lab, which includes 27 workstations with cameras, audio/voice equipment, eye-tracking capabilities, and a variety of other biometric options. Hofstra faculty also have strong collaborations with the Feinstein Institute for Medical Research and the broader Northwell Health system on Long Island, with the potential for a new faculty member to receive cross-appointment and access to healthcare settings as appropriate to their research.

Hofstra University is located on Long Island in close proximity to New York City (25 miles east of Manhattan), with its wealth of business, entertainment, and cultural opportunities.

• Completed PhD or anticipated award date prior to May 31, 2026 in Clinical Psychology.
• Licensure or license-eligible as a clinical psychologist (if eligible but not yet licensed, must have a clear plan for achieving licensure in NY state within two years of starting).
