[Iefac.list] San Jose State Faculty Position in Human Factors Psychology - Deadline Soon

[Dan Nathan-Roberts]

Hi Colleagues,
Please pardon any duplicate postings, I'm excited about this position.

San José State University has a tenure track assistant professor position
available for the fall of 2016.

Please share the application information with colleagues who may be
interested.**Information below or at this link
<https://blogs.sjsu.edu/psych/2015/09/14/position-availability-assistant-professor-in-human-factors-psychology/>.*

Located in the heart of Silicon Valley, SJSU has hired four new HF faculty
in the last two years. The oldest university in California, SJSU has a
strong teaching focus, diverse student body, and deep connections with
industry.

I strongly suspect that applications submitted after the close of the
official acceptance date would still be reviewed.

Please contact Ron Rogers (Ronald.Rogers at sjsu.edu) with any questions.

Ergonomically,

- Dan
