Visiting Lecturer in School Psychology

Overview

Visiting Lecturer in School Psychology — Department of Special Education and Clinical Sciences, School Psychology. Rank:
Lecturer. Annual Basis: 9 Month.

The School Psychology Program is seeking to hire a Visiting Lecturer to support our NASP-accredited Education Specialist program. This position will be located at the University of Oregon NE Portland campus. Primary responsibilities will include teaching/supervision, academic advising and support to school psychology graduate students, and service to the department, college, university, and/or profession. Additional opportunities may be available for academic leadership, practicum/internship coordination, licensure program coordination, and program improvement activities.

This position will be responsible for contributing to the equity and inclusion goals of the program and college and incorporating inclusive practices into their work.

Course content areas for teaching responsibilities may include core school psychology domains (e.g., assessment, intervention, consultation) as well as courses in related areas (e.g., counseling, special education). Areas of content expertise for the Visiting Lecturer are open, although we are particularly interested in receiving applications from individuals with expertise in the following areas: social emotional and behavior assessment and intervention, cognitive assessment, school-based mental health promotion, school-based consultation, counseling and child-family interventions, and/or developmental psychopathology.

This position is a nine-month limited duration faculty position in the Lecturer category. The visiting appointment position begins September 16, 2026, and will end on June 15, 2027, with the possibility of a 2026 summer term appointment. Limited duration appointments may be renewed for up to a total of three years.

Given the unique ways in which individuals from historically marginalized racial and ethnic groups, sexual- and gender-minorities, students with disabilities, and persons with immigrant, language learner, and/or low-income status have been poorly served, we strongly encourage members of such groups to apply for this position. Evidence suggests that people self-select out of positions due to concerns over failure to meet minimal requirements;

we strongly encourage such applicants to apply even if they are uncertain about their qualifications.
