In 1976, the University of Denver Graduate School of Professional Psychology (GSPP) became one of the first schools in the country to offer a Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) in Clinical Psychology. Since 1979, our inaugural degree has maintained accreditation by the American Psychological Association and has become one of the most competitive and comprehensive programs in the field of professional psychology. It is a dedicated, practice-focused clinical psychology program built on four pillars: rigorous academic coursework, in-house clinical work, community-based clinical work and departmental mentorship. This approach produces well-rounded professionals with the skills necessary to help transform communities and lives.

GSPP seeks to train students to provide culturally competent services to clients and the community. GSPP is committed to building a diverse and inclusive educational environment and encourages applications from individuals with minoritized identities. GSPP endeavors to create an accessible, affirming, and safe climate by actively engaging in the process of systemic transformation and accountability.

Position Description

The PsyD program is accepting applications for adjunct faculty instructors for a condensed, eight-week summer quarter, Monday, June 20 – Monday, August 15, 2022.

The full course listing is available in the University of Denver's Graduate Bulletin: A preliminary schedule is available in the online course schedule: Please note that course offerings, schedules, and modalities may vary.

We are particularly seeking instructors for the following courses:


REQUIRED:

CPSY 5180 Life Cycle: Adolescent-Adult
CPSY 5231 Social Psychology

ELECTIVE:
CPSY 5560 Family Therapy
CPSY 5765 Cognitive Behavioral Therapy

Essential Functions

Adjunct faculty are required to complete DU-wide online training, plan and teach courses (some courses are on-campus whereas others may be online using Zoom), be available to meet with students online or in-person, respond to student questions, assign and grade papers and exams as appropriate, and adhere to all relevant DU policies and procedures. Adjunct faculty may be asked to participate in competency exams and doctoral paper committees.

Required Qualifications

  • For Social Psychology, doctoral degree in social psychology
  • For other courses, graduate degree in Clinical Psychology or a related field (must be a doctoral degree for required classes, may be a master's degree for elective classes)
  • Demonstrated current and relevant expertise

Preferred Qualification

  • Teaching experience at the graduate level

Compensation

Adjuncts are typically compensated at a rate of $1,058 per credit per course.

*Instructors who are co-teaching a content course that does not involve clinical supervision will split the credits, so each co-teacher receives half of the pay above. Seminar courses that require supervision are typically designed to have multiple co-leaders to allow for appropriate student-to-supervisor ratios. In this case, each co-leader is paid at the credit hour rate above. In addition, Cognitive Affective Psychology and Social Psychology are paid double the above rate since they are required courses that require specific degrees with implications for accreditation.

The University of Denver has provided a compensation range that represents its good faith estimate of what the University may pay for the position at the time of posting. The University may ultimately pay more or less than the posted compensation range. The salary offered to the selected candidate will be determined based on factors such as the qualifications of the selected candidate, departmental budget availability, internal salary equity considerations, and available market information, but not based on a candidate's sex or any other protected status.
