You:
Your experience and profile for the Teacher (D4) position: You;
Clinical Psychology
You have a strong affinity with clinical psychology, ideally demonstrated by completion of a 1- or 2-year Master's program in this field. You preferably have some experience in clinical practice (at minimum completed clinical internship), and you preferably have completed your Basisaantekening Psychodiagnostiek (BAPD).
Klinische Neuropsychologie (alleen in het Nederlands)
Je hebt een MSc Klinische Neuropsychologie afgerond, inclusief een praktijkstage. Ervaring met neuropsychologische diagnostiek in de klinische praktijk wordt zeer gewaardeerd. De practicumgroepen bij de specialisatie Klinische Neuropsychologie zijn compleet Nederlandstalig, dus beheersing van de Nederlandse taal is een vereiste.
Brain & Cognition
You have a strong affinity with cognitive neuroscience or with cognitive psychology, ideally demonstrated by completion of a 1- or 2-year Master's program in this field. A genuine interest in the inner workings of cognitive neuroscience research is essential. Basic programming skills are a clear advantage, as is hands-on experience with methods such as EEG, fMRI, or eye tracking—for example, through your Bachelor’s or Master’s thesis.
Social Psychology
You have a strong affinity with social psychology, ideally demonstrated by completion of a Master's program in this field and/or a bachelor program with in-depth theoretical treatment of the social psychology of (inter-) group processes, attitudes, motivation, emotions and social cognition.
