Job Posting:
Assistant Professor, Biological Psychology
Athabasca University, Canada's Open UniversityT, invites applications
for an assistant professor position in Biological Psychology. The
position is housed within a small community of innovative psychologists
in the Centre for Psychology. In addition to its undergraduate degree
programs and courses, the University anticipates the offering of a
Master of Counselling program in January of 2002.
The ideal candidate should have a Ph.D. in biological psychology with a
strong background in instructional design and/or educational technology,
have relevant teaching experience, and show promise of developing a
program of research. Teaching responsibilities include courses in the
biological bases of human behavior. Possible areas for development
include addictions, neuropsychology, psychopharmacology, altered states
of consciousness, sensation and perception. Candidates must be prepared
to teach psychology courses outside of the field of biological
psychology. The selected candidate will develop print-based and
internet-based course materials for use by distance learners at the
undergraduate level and, potentially, at the graduate level.
The preferred candidate will be an innovator in education who believes
in open education and enjoys working with adult learners. Experience in
distance education and computer-based instruction is an asset. The
position is a five year term appointment with a strong possibility of
becoming a continuous appointment (i.e., tenure-track) starting January
1, 2002, or as soon as possible thereafter.
Further information about this position may be obtained from Dr. Geoff
Peruniak, Chair, Centre for Psychology: phone, (780) 675-6235; or

Athabasca University is located in the Town of Athabasca in the
beautiful cottage country of north central Alberta, 145 km north of
Edmonton and operates regional centres in Calgary and Edmonton. It
specializes in distance education and delivers courses to approximately
25,000 students per year. Academics live and work in Athabasca, or
commute weekly to Athabasca.
All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and

equitable working conditions for members of groups traditionally
under-represented in universities.
