The Department of Psychology in the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Miami invites applications for a full-time faculty position in quantitative methods, data science, and/or computational modeling at the rank of either Assistant Professor (tenure-track) or Associate Professor (tenure-eligible). The start date of the appointment is August 15, 2027. We seek a scholar whose research contributes to methodological innovations. The successful candidate will bring this expertise to research questions that complement the Department’s existing strengths in one or more program divisions including Health (e.g., stress, health behaviors, and disease processes in cardiovascular disease, HIV, and cancer), Adult (e.g., psychopathology, cognitive processes, emotion regulation, social influences and treatment development), Child (e.g., psychological development, mental health, and family and environmental influences), and Cognitive & Behavioral Neuroscience (e.g., neural mechanisms underlying cognition, emotion and behavior). Ideally, the successful candidate will collaborate with other faculty members to integrate, adapt, and evaluate quantitative and computational approaches and to help shape the department’s quantitative direction in research, curriculum, and mentorship for graduate and undergraduate students across a range of quantitative backgrounds. We value candidates who combine methodological depth and innovation with a commitment to making quantitative and computational approaches rigorous and accessible to students.
The University of Miami is a private institution, and the Department of Psychology is a vibrant, collaborative community that includes clinical and psychological sciences faculty across Adult, Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience, Child, and Health Divisions.

The University is embedded within the greater Miami community, which is one of the most vibrant metropolitan areas in the country.
