The position primarily requires work to be completed physically on campus. Most faculty members fulfill their responsibilities in person, with some flexibility for remote days to support a healthy work-life balance.

They will advise students on career-related and academic topics. They will supervise student research activities and support their academic pursuits.

They will serve the institution by collaborating with colleagues on curriculum, administrative, and human resource-related tasks at the department, college, and university levels. The new faculty member will continue to develop themselves by learning about teaching, technology, and by keeping abreast of developments in their field. The faculty member will teach courses on a variety of topics (e.g., abnormal psychology, theories of counseling, basic counseling skills, treatment of children/families/couples, and research methods in psychology) and will be expected to teach in our clinical MS program, which prepares students for licensure as Marriage and Family Therapists (MFTs). This position/title is covered by the California Faculty Association Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Minimum requirements include:

• A completed initial application submitted in full by the due date.
• PhD in Clinical Psychology, Counseling Psychology, School Psychology, Marriage and Family Therapy or a closely related field by time of appointment.
