expansion of the psychology department (psy.bilkent.edu.tr). Accordingly,
we seek applications from promising or established scholars in all areas of
psychology (social psychology, developmental psychology, cognitive
psychology, experimental psychology, clinical psychology, and
neuroscience). Those with interdisciplinary approaches to studying
psychology that bridge different subfields and those offering a social,
developmental, and/or clinical perspective are particularly encouraged to
apply.

The language of instruction is English. The Department and the
Interdisciplinary Graduate Program in Neuroscience (neuro.bilkent.edu.tr)
offer Master’s and PhD programs. For 5 consecutive years, each newly
admitted Psychology major has scored in the top 6% or higher on the
national university entrance exam. The Department has newly renovated
research laboratories, as well as access to the university’s
state-of-the-art facilities, which include a 3 Tesla MR scanner, animal
research center, and EEG equipment.

Bilkent is located in Ankara, Turkey’s metropolitan capital with daily
direct flights to Istanbul and other major European cities. Bilkent
University also provides faculty members and their families with free
housing and access to private health insurance.

psychology or a related discipline, and should have an excellent
publication record (requirements vary with rank). A demonstrated ability or

teaching requirement during summers, and a possibility of reduced teaching
in the first year of appointment), and supervise PhD, Master’s, and senior
thesis students.
