Behaviour analysis uses evidence-based methods derived from the principles of behaviour, to improve socially important behaviours.

The Behaviour Analysis programme was the first training programme to be developed outside of the USA, and has a long history of training high-quality behaviour analysts. Our graduates are eligible to be registered as psychologists in New Zealand (the programme carries New Zealand Psychologist Board accreditation) and work in a range of areas post-graduation.

The Behaviour Analysis team comprises four permanent staff and a number of fixed-term staff. Some staff are full-time employees of the university, and others hold clinical positions outside the programme. The team teaches at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels and covers the full spectrum of behaviour analysis from basic operant principles to applied technologies used in the field. We emphasise the use of the science of behaviour to benefit a number of population groups and encourage our students to work across a range of practice areas, including dementia, brain injury, disabilities, corporate organisations, forensics, and government organisations. The team produces high-quality research and students who go on to be both researchers and clinicians.

You will have excellent communication skills with the ability to motivate and inspire students. You will have knowledge, skills, and ability to teach behaviour-analytic tactics based on behavioural principles.

A good understanding and awareness of process issues in supervision and practice is essential. You will have a track record of research in the field and research outputs commensurate with your years as a researcher.

At a minimum you must have:

- A PhD in Behaviour Analysis or related field
- Be registered, or eligible to register, with New Zealand Psychologist Board
- Demonstrated knowledge and research skills in behaviour analysis
- Knowledge of the use of technologies to support learning and teaching e.g., Microsoft Teams, Canvas, and Zoom.
