Job Openings

[Wayne Gray]

let me know. We see ICCM as an especially good time to discuss these 
positions with foreign colleagues who might not otherwise be familiar 
with GMU or Northern Virginia. (I will also be at Edinburgh for 
CogSci-2001.)

Cognition. The Department of Psychology at George Mason University 
anticipates two openings beginning in the Fall, 2002, one at the

will have a Ph.D. in Cognitive Psychology or related area and 
experience developing cognitive theory, preferably in the context of 
real-world problems. We will consider applicants from a variety of

human computer interaction, human factors, psychology of science, 
complex problem solving, higher level cognition, visual attention, 
training (especially computer-based), human performance, and decision 
making. A record of or strong potential for external funding is 
expected, and evidence of teaching skills and multi-disciplinary 
interests is highly desirable. Positions are targeted at the 
assistant and associate professor levels; however senior applicants 
with external funding may be considered.

Washington, DC and is the newest university in the Virginia 
Commonwealth system. The psychology department has Ph.D. programs in
