Teaching psychology is a noble and rewarding endeavor, but finding the
right position at the right college can be a daunting task. This book
is designed to guide you through this complicated process by helping
you find the job that matches your long‑term goals—whether you
want to focus on research, teaching, or both—and to become a strong,
competitive candidate in today’s challenging academic job market.
Author Guy Boysen begins by surveying the wide array of programs and
institutions aspiring faculty should consider, including doctoral and
master’s programs at public and private universities, community
colleges, and baccalaureate colleges. He then reviews the ideal
skills, experience, and professional connections that students should
accumulate during graduate school. Readers will learn strategies for
writing CVs, cover letters, and other application materials; securing
effective letters of recommendation; preparing for phone, video, and
on‑campus interviews; and negotiating terms of employment after
being offered a job.
