The Department of Psychological Science at the University of California, Irvine invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant Professor level. We seek to hire an individual with expertise related to developmental and/or health psychology. We are especially interested in candidates who are conducting research related to factors that may influence accelerating aging and health and/or who bring expertise related to the integration of biological and environmental measures as they relate to reducing disparities in health and psychological wellbeing. Expertise in the novel assessment of development over the life course, including the use of new methods for capturing gene-environment interplay, impacts of early and ongoing adversity on health, and/or interventions designed to reduce disparities in health and psychological wellbeing are also highly valued.

To ensure your application is given full consideration, files should be completed by November 10, 2024. Priority will be given to applications received by that date; however, applications will be accepted until the position is filled. The position will begin July 1, 2025 (teaching duties will begin Fall 2025).
