There is excellent collaboration among faculty across the different areas, and close ties to other groups in the University, particularly in Brain and Cognitive Sciences, Education, Psychiatry, Neuroscience, Nursing, Pediatrics, and Engineering. The department is conveniently located across the street from the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry which offers opportunities for collaborations on research, teaching and service. For further information please see our website: www.sas.rochester.edu/psy. We are seeking successful candidates with outstanding research accomplishments and promise and a shared commitment to teaching excellence at undergraduate and graduate levels.
The Department of Psychology is creating a diverse and inclusive learning and work environment, which is integral for excellence in research, teaching and service. We are especially committed to increasing representation of those populations historically underrepresented in U.S. higher education. Please include a diversity statement that details how your research, teaching, and service support the success of students from racial, ethnic, gender, and other diverse backgrounds. Applicants who have not yet had the opportunity for such experience should note how their work will further the University of Rochester’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Rochester also boasts a thriving arts and music culture, substantial employment opportunities in various sectors, affordable housing, and easy access to urban, suburban, and rural neighborhoods.

Organization
The University of Rochester (located in Rochester, N.Y.) is one of the nation's leading private universities. One of the most collegiate in character among members of the Association of American Universities, Rochester has a personal scale that creates exceptional opportunities for interdisciplinary study and close work with faculty. The University consistently ranks among the top colleges and universities nationwide in federally financed science, engineering, medical, and other research.
The University of Rochester envisions itself as a community that welcomes, encourages, and supports individuals who desire to contribute to and benefit from the institution’s missions of teaching, research, patient care, performance, and community service. In a pluralistic culture, that community includes faculty, students, and staff who represent important differences. Members of the University’s community come from different geographical areas, represent differences in ethnicities, religious beliefs, values, and points of view; 
they may be physically different, have different intellectual interests, or have different abilities. The University not only welcomes such differences in the members of its community but, in fulfilling its own missions and in preparing the leaders of tomorrow’s world who will necessarily be operating in an equally wide-ranging environment, it actively seeks to recruit and include them in all aspects of the institution’s operations.
The University of Rochester is an institution devoted to teaching and learning, and producing new knowledge. We do these at world-class levels. The challenges facing us as we work to be more inclusive and provide a welcoming environment will respond to our skills as teachers and learners. In the context of our commitment to being more inclusive and diverse, we can apply these skills to the continuing work of transforming our environment in ways that enable greater participation, enhance human dignity, eliminate prejudice and discrimination, and improve the quality of life for everyone.
