"Diversifying Clinical Psychology" is an opportunity for outstanding undergraduates from underrepresented groups who are interested in getting a Ph.D. in clinical psychology to meet informally with Directors from Clinical Ph.D. programs from across the nation.  Held as part of the annual meeting of the Council of University Directors of Clinical Psychology(CUDCP), this one-day event will provide students the opportunity to bring poster presentations, publications and/or their Curriculum Vitae, get specific information about various programs, and establish personal connections with leading scholars in clinical psychology.  African American, American Indian, Asian American, Hispanic/Latino, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander students are especially encouraged to apply.  In years past the event was quite successful.  You can view the write up in the APA Monitor here. 

Students will meet with the event coordinator, Dr. Emilio Ulloa, the morning prior to the event for two separate professional workshops including information about the format and expectations for the event.  The event begins with an informal student poster session and is followed by one-on-one meetings with the university DCTs.

Subject: [CP] HoD position opening at Kansas State University

 

We are currently searching for the department head, and behavioral neuroscience is one of our priority areas. We have substantial space available for building new laboratories in behavioral neuroscience and three investigators have been hired in the last few years: Matt Palmatier, Mary Cain, and myself. We are particularly interested in individuals who could help us to build a nationally recognized neuroscience program here.

 

The ad is listed below. If you know of anyone who would be a potential candidate, please pass this along to them.

 

Cheers,

Kim Kirkpatrick
