The division of Experimental Psychology at Utrecht University's faculty of Social and Behavioural Sciences is recruiting an Assistant Professor in Neuropsychology. The position entails a combination of 60% teaching and 40% research activities. Are you interested? Then read the full profile below and apply.

Wat ga je doen?

The Assistant Professor will be appointed at the division of Experimental Psychology. The division is involved in three Bachelor programmes: Psychology, Artificial Intelligence, and University College Utrecht. In addition, the division is involved in the Master's degrees in Neuropsychology, Applied Cognitive Psychology, Artificial Intelligence, Applied Data science, and Neuroscience & Cognition. Furthermore, we are responsible for the Helmholtz PhD programme (Cognition & Behaviour). The research in the division is organized in four domains: perception, social-affective processes, neuropsychology, and youth. In each domain both fundamental and (clinically) applied methods are used.

The core tasks include:

• contributing to teaching in a subset of the aforementioned Bachelor's and Master's programmes - the exact teaching task will depend on your profile, but will at least involve teaching in the domain of Neuropsychology (BSc and MSc level);
• developing, carrying out, and supervising research within the field of Experimental Neuropsychology;
• connecting (neuro)cognitive research to neuropsychology research within the division;
• contributing to the acquisition of external research funding.

Wat breng je mee?

We are looking for an enthusiastic colleague who meets the following requirements. The ideal candidate should:

• hold a PhD degree in the field of neuropsychology, or a related field;
• have an affinity with teaching, along with demonstrable excellent teaching skills. This can for example include experience with (co-)developing or (co-)coordinating academic courses, or experience with supervising internships or theses;
• be able to apply neuropsychological research or clinical experience to teaching;
• hold a University Teaching Qualification (BKO) or is willing to acquire this qualification in the near future;
• be fluent in spoken and written English and fluent in, or willing to learn, Dutch - fluency in Dutch will weigh positively to facilitate teaching and interacting with Bachelor's students;
• have experience with, and interest in, conducting neuropsychological research - previous experience with patient related research or clinical neuropsychological experience is appreciated;
• have scientific creativity and productivity, as evident in recent publications in international peer-reviewed journals or peer-reviewed conferences;
• have the ability to, and preferably experience with, acquiring research funding;
• have good social skills and the ability to collaborate with colleagues from different disciplines;
• value both individual and teamwork, as well as academic leadership at all levels, as described in Utrecht University Recognition and Rewards Vision (see esp. leadership section);
• value sharing scientific results and data with other researchers (aimed at increasing collective achievements), and with society (aimed at increasing the university's contribution to societal issues). This refers to, e.g., teamwork with colleagues within and outside UU, and the principles of open data and open access.

Wat bieden wij?

We offer:

• an employment contract for 12 months with the prospect of a permanent employment contract;
• a working week of 38 hours and a gross monthly salary between €4,332 and €6,737 in the case of full-time employment (salary scale 11-12 under the Collective Labour Agreement for Dutch Universities (CAO NU));
• 8% holiday pay and 8.3% year-end bonus;
• a pension scheme, partially paid parental leave and flexible terms of employment based on the CAO NU.
