    Apology for cross-posting. Please help distribute the following ad to
    your students and/or colleagues who might be interested. Thanks.

    The Department of Psychology at Hofstra University invites applications
    for a full-time, tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant or
    Associate Professor level beginning September, 2008.. The position is
    primarily for the Ph.D. Program in Applied Organizational Psychology and
    the M.A. Program in Industrial/Organizational Psychology, although some
    undergraduate teaching is available as well. Our Ph.D. program places a
    strong emphasis on research methods and statistics as well as topics
    relating to human behavior in organizations. The M.A. program is an
    applied program that prepares students for careers in such areas as
    human resources, training and development, management and organization
    development, and market research.

    The successful applicant will have completed a Ph.D. in
    Industrial/Organizational Psychology or a related area and will
    demonstrate a strong record of accomplishment in research, teaching, and
    grant or contract activity, commensurate with rank. ABDs will be
    considered, with the strong expectation that they will have defended
    their dissertation by the time of appointment. Practical experience
    working with organizations is desirable, but not required. Applicants
    for the position should have strong expertise in research methods and
    statistics and one or more specialty areas of I/O Psychology.

    In addition to graduate and possibly undergraduate teaching in I/O
    areas, the position requires the development of a research program and
    supervision of doctoral student research. We are looking for an
    energetic person who will make significant contributions to strengthen
    our already well-regarded M.A. program and help us bring our young Ph.D.
    program to national visibility.

    Hofstra University is located on Long Island in close proximity to New
    York City (25 miles east of Manhattan), with its wealth of business,
    entertainment, and cultural opportunities. Our faculty and students have
    diverse backgrounds and we welcome diverse applicants. For more
    information about our graduate programs, our faculty, and our students,
