<span style="font-family: Aptos, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">The Department of Psychology at Tufts University is seeking applicants for a full-time faculty position in Computational Psychology at either the Associate (tenured) or Assistant
(tenure-track) Professor level to begin September 1, 2026. Research (and ideally some teaching) must use computational methods with a focus on artificial intelligence (AI), although the area to which AI is applied is open. Preference will be given to research
using AI as a tool to better understand human behavior or research on how using AI impacts human behavior. Preference is also given to research programs that bridge to existing research foci represented in the department.</span></p>
