Full/Part Time: Full-Time
Job ID: 61272
Department
Educational Psychology and Learning Systems in the Anne Spencer Daves College of Education, Health, and Human Sciences and the Florida Center for Reading Research.
Responsibilities
Candidates will be expected to maintain a rigorous grant writing and research program, teach graduate-level courses in their program, train and supervise master’s and doctoral students, and participate in university governance commensurate with rank.
The position will involve teaching, research, and service within either the Learning and Cognition or the Measurement and Statistics Program within the Department of Educational Psychology and Learning Systems (EPLS) and will include a joint appointment with the Florida Center for Reading Research (FCRR).

Qualifications
The candidate will join an interdisciplinary group of colleagues and students at FCRR. Drawing from multiple disciplines, FCRR investigates all aspects of reading and reading-related skills across the lifespan. Through rigorous and robust research, innovation, and engagement, FCRR advances the science of reading to improve learning and achievement from birth through adulthood. EPLS is home to six doctoral, four M.S./Ed.S., and four M.S. degrees in multiple program areas, including an APA-accredited joint doctoral program, NASP-accredited school psychology Ed.S. program and multiple CACREP-accredited Ed.S. programs in addition to the programs in Educational Psychology, Measurement and Statistics, Sport Psychology and Instructional Systems & Learning Technologies.
The roots of FSU’s Anne Spencer Daves College of Education, Health, and Human Sciences date back to the university’s establishment, and it is the oldest college of its kind in Florida. Recently expanded in 2023, the College is home to six academic departments united through a common goal to maximize human potential.

Anne’s College serves over 4,000 students via 201 full-time faculty and 76 full-time staff.
