<b>Special Instructions to Applicants</b> <br>
Applications will be reviewed beginning October 1 and continue until the position is filled. Please feel free to contact Dr. Kristy McRaney at kristy.mcraney@usm.edu to inquire about the position. 1) a cover letter describing strengths and qualifications for
the position, 2) a CV, 3) names and contact information for three references (letters will be requested following initial review), 4) academic transcripts (unofficial transcripts are acceptable) and 5) teaching evaluations (when applicable). <br>
<br>
<b>Job Summary</b> <br>
The School of Psychology at the University of Southern Mississippi (USM) invites applications for two full-time, 9-month, Assistant Teaching Professor positions beginning August 2026. This exciting opportunity is available to Doctoral level graduates with exceptional
teaching abilities and a desire to support the undergraduate and graduate programs at Southern Miss. Teaching track faculty are permanent faculty, and eligible for promotion. We are especially interested in colleagues who support the mission of the University
and support student success initiatives designed to promote retention of first-generation college students. <br>
<br>
These positions will primarily serve the undergraduate and graduate programs at the Hattiesburg campus. The area of specialization is open, however, we are particularly interested in applicants with expertise in neuroscience or in the applied fields to help
cover undergraduate and graduate courses in behavioral neuroscience, or counseling/ clinical coursework. Practicum supervision opportunities are available to license-eligible, qualified applicants. Opportunities for program leadership in the Master’s Counseling
Psychology program are available to Associate-level applied applicants, but not required. Although Mississippi does not require postdoctoral hours for licensure, opportunities for peer supervision during the licensure process are available from licensed faculty.
Visa support for international applicants is not available. <br>
<br>
The School of Psychology has approximately 600 undergraduate majors across two campuses and 125 graduate students completing programs in one of three APA-accredited doctoral programs (Counseling, Clinical, & School), a doctoral program in Experimental Psychology
and an MPCAC-accredited Master’s program in Counseling Psychology. More information can be found at www.usm.edu/psychology . <br>
