Position description
The Department of Psychology at the University of California, Berkeley seeks to fill an Assistant Teaching Professor position in the area of Quantitative Methods, with an expected start date of July 1, 2027.
Assistant Professors of Teaching are members of the Academic Senate. The Teaching Professor series includes eligibility for review for promotion to Associate Professor of Teaching, which includes security of employment (equivalent to tenure).
The primary duties and responsibilities of an appointee to the position are pedagogical (e.g. teaching, and advising). Secondary responsibilities are professional and/or scholarly achievement, including those related to instruction and pedagogy. Therefore, the appointee is expected to demonstrate a record of and/or potential for pedagogical excellence and innovation both in the classroom and in scholarly activities.
This is a cross-area hire, not affiliated with any single research area in Psychology, reflecting the department's collective need for dedicated instruction in quantitative and statistical methods. Applicants who use multiple and innovative methodological approaches, including advanced statistics, computational approaches, and reproducible research practices, are of particular interest.
With respect to pedagogy, the successful candidate will be expected to teach multiple graduate and undergraduate courses covering core quantitative and statistical content, which may include a subset of the following and other topics: psychometric theory and application, multilevel/mixed-effect modeling, dyadic analysis, factor analytic/structural equation modeling methods, machine learning aimed toward psychologists, data visualization, meta-analysis, reproducible research methods, introductory programming for statistics, bootstrap/resampling methods, fMRI/fNIRS/EEG data analysis, computational modeling, and Bayesian data analysis. In addition, the hire will provide quantitative support to students, postdocs, and faculty through a pre-defined number of weekly consulting hours (akin to office hours), and will offer 1-2 seminars each year to help department faculty stay up to date on emerging quantitative and computational methods.
With respect to professional and/or scholarly activities, the appointee is expected to sustain a record of achievement that may relate to the discipline of quantitative methods itself, to pedagogy, or to both, and that provides evidence of achievement, leadership, and/or influence on the campus or beyond. Such activities may take many forms, and no single form of activity is required. Examples include methodological, statistical, or empirical scholarship and resulting publications; scholarship on teaching and learning; the development and dissemination of instructional materials, curricula, software, or other open educational resources; collaboration with faculty and trainees as a co-investigator on grants, including contributions to study design and data analysis and co-authorship of resulting publications; administrative work such as the direction of learning centers, teaching programs, or methods training initiatives; community outreach; seminars, lectures, or workshops presented at other institutions or professional societies; participation in scholarly activities and intensive programs of study (e.g., summer institutes) undertaken to enhance expertise in relevant fields; and the pursuit of external support for educational or research initiatives (e.g., NIH Research Education or NSF Innovations in Graduate Education programs). Through these activities, the appointee will play a key role in the department's research enterprise and will strengthen the department's quantitative rigor by serving as a methodological leader
The department is committed to addressing the family needs of faculty, including dual career couples and single parents. We are also interested in candidates who have had non-traditional career paths or who have taken time off for family reasons, or who have achieved excellence in careers outside academia. For information about potential relocation to Berkeley, or career needs of accompanying partners and spouses, please visit:
New Senate Faculty on the Office for Faculty Equity & Welfare's website.
The committee is willing to consider any special circumstances that may have affected research productivity during any specific period (e.g. the Covid-19 pandemic).

Ph.D. or equivalent international degree, or enrolled in Ph.D. or equivalent international degree-granting program at the time of application.
