Visiting Assistant Professor in Human Cognition – One Year Appointment

Position Summary: The Department of Psychology at Gettysburg College invites applications for a one-year Visiting Assistant Professor in Human Cognition beginning August 2026. The teaching load for this position is the equivalent of six courses over the academic year. Teaching responsibilities will include Introductory Psychology, a 200-level course in Human Cognition, Experimental Research Methods, and an upper-level laboratory course in the candidate’s research area. Candidates will also have access to their own laboratory space and the opportunity to work directly with undergraduate students as research assistants and independent study students.

Qualifications: Candidates should have a PhD (or be ABD) in the area of Human Cognition. Previous teaching experience at the undergraduate level is preferred.
