Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychology (0.8 - 1.0 FTE)

A position of assistant professor is available in the Clinical Psychology department of Leiden University. The department has an ambitious and multidisciplinary research program with a focus on clinically relevant research. The Clinical Psychology master's program has a maximum of 150 students per year, about half of whom are non-Dutch speakers. The program is taught in English, with the exception of therapeutic skills training for Dutch-speaking students. The staff of the department also participate in the bachelor's program, which is taught in both Dutch and English. The department is also active in post-master professional training programs.

Job description:

With 40% research time you contribute to the research program of the Clinical Psychology unit. Your research should relate to the etiology, diagnostics and/or treatment of psychopathology. The expertise of the unit mainly concerns depression, suicide prevention, and trauma-related disorders. Method-wise our expertise ranges from basic experimental methods to innovative applied research on clinical interventions. Once a fixed appointment is obtained, the position come with a Starters grant to initiate a research project in collaboration with other staff members of the section. In addition, you are expected to compete for research grants from Dutch and European grant providers. The unit participates in several research and training consortia, including NESDA, New Science of Mental Disorders, Bioclock, Caring Universities and the research school EPP. The unit also participates in our academic outpatient clinic, the Leiden University Treatment and Expertise Center (LUBEC), with a focus on trauma interventions.

You will also contribute to teaching at both bachelor's and master's level. Teaching tasks may include clinical and research skills training, course coordination, and internship and thesis supervision in the master's program. Undergraduate work groups and lectures to larger groups of students are also possible.

The research/teaching ratio is 40/60. Research grants can lead to a reduction of teaching load. A combination of this position with a part-time position as a clinician at the Leiden University Treatment and Expertise Center (LUBEC) is negotiable, provided you have a relevant BIG registration.

Requirements:

• Completed a master program in clinical psychology (or closely related field);
• PhD on a topic relevant to clinical psychology;
