Loyola University Chicago is an ADVANCE institution, one of a select group of universities to receive National Science Foundation funds to support our commitment to increase the number and success of women faculty in the STEM fields.

Teaching responsibilities include four courses in each semester of the academic year. We are particularly interested in candidates who can teach General Psychology, Statistics, and/or Research Methods.
