The faculty member will help teach statistics courses at the graduate level as well as courses in their own substantive specialty at the graduate and undergraduate levels.

Its 33 tenure-stream faculty offer five graduate training programs: Biological and Health, Clinical, Cognitive, Developmental, and Social, along with cross-program training opportunities. The interdisciplinary nature of psychological science is reflected in both faculty research interests and collaborations and training options afforded to graduate students.
