Job Description

George Fox University's Graduate School of Clinical Psychology announces a full-time, tenure-track faculty position to begin in August 2024. As a professional graduate program, we offer a 12-month modified contract: 9 month core faculty role (May-August), with additional summer research support to dissertation students, as needed. This position has the additional potential of serving in an administrative leadership role within the department.

About the Job:

The responsibilities of this position would include teaching doctoral students in generalist clinical psychology coursework. As a program that has a strong mentoring focus, this faculty position also includes running a small clinical mentor group once a week, with students across various levels of training. In addition, each faculty member runs a focused research team of students across various levels of training. All university faculty are engaged in administrative service to the department or on university committees (e.g. Admissions Committee, Orientation Committee, sponsorship of Student-led Special Interest Groups, etc.). Finally, tenure-track faculty are expected to develop and maintain scholarship.

While all of our faculty ascribe to a Christian worldview, we train students from a variety of spiritual and religious backgrounds. Regardless of background, George Fox University, a Christ-centered community, prepares students spiritually, academically, and professionally to think with clarity, act with integrity, and serve with passion. As a Christ- centered community, George Fox University is an institution that values diversity as an essential dimension of God's design for human communities. In seeking to become a more inclusive community, we highly encourage applications from individuals who can help us achieve our diversity and faith integration goals.
