    Hello,

    tenure-track faculty member. Review of applicants begins immediately. I
    would appreciate it if you could distribute the following ad to those
    who may be interested. Thanks.

    Jinyan Fan
    Assistant Professor
    Hofstra University
    ============================================================

    THE DEPARTMENT OF PSYCHOLOGY AT HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY invites applications
    for a full-time, tenure-track position at the level of ASSISTANT
    PROFESSOR OF PSYCHOLOGY beginning September 2007. The position is
    primarily for the M.A. program in Industrial-Organizational Psychology
    and the PhD program in Applied Organizational Psychology, as well as
    some undergraduate teaching.

    The MA program prepares students for careers in such areas as human
    resources, training, management, and organization development. Research
    design, statistics, and general psychology provide the foundations for
    advanced study in selection, training, performance appraisal, and worker
    motivation. The curriculum is strengthened by an internship sequence
    that provides on-site supervised experience working on applied projects
    in business and public agencies.

    The Ph.D. program prepares students to conduct research and apply basic
    scientific knowledge and methodology to improve organizational
    performance and enhance personal development. It is based on the
    philosophy that both science and practice benefit when researchers and
    practitioners collaborate on problems of mutual interest. Graduates of
    the doctoral program have expertise in two major areas: (a) research
    methods and statistics, and (b) disciplines related to human behavior in
    organizations, such as industrial/organizational psychology, management,
    business, sociology, and economics.

    The successful applicant must have a PhD in industrial-organizational
    psychology or anticipate completion of the doctoral degree by August
    2007, an active research program, and the demonstrated potential of
    excellence in research and teaching. The particular area of research is
    not as critical as the ability to make meaningful scientific
    contributions.

    To apply, send a letter that describes teaching and research experience
    and interests; curriculum vita; representative reprints; graduate
    transcripts; and three letters of recommendation to Dr. Charles
    Levinthal, Chair, Department of Psychology, 135 Hofstra University,
    Hempstead, NY 11549-1350. Review of applicants begins immediately and
    will continue until the position is filled. More information on the
    two programs can be found at
