Academic Positions: Assistant Professor

The Department of Psychology at the University of Utah invites applications for two tenure-track faculty positions in social psychology. These advertised positions are for tenure-track assistant professors. We welcome applications from social psychologists with strong theory-based research programs in the following areas:

 

Position 1) social-health psychology (social contributors to physiology and health outcomes; social processes involved in health behaviors, health-related decision-making, and seeking and receiving medical care). Individuals who can address the potential influence of social and cultural factors in explaining disparities in health outcomes and/or how this knowledge may translate to interventions that promote health and well-being for all individuals will be especially of interest.

 

Position 2) social psychology with emphasis in social cognition, attitudes, affect/emotion, close relationships, or motivation/self-regulation with potential application to education, mental health, well-being, physical health, technology and use of AI, law, intergroup relations, or work and the workforce.

 

Review of applications will begin on October 1 and will continue until the positions are filled.
