About TMU
At the intersection of mind and action, Toronto Metropolitan University is on a transformative path to become Canada’s leading comprehensive innovation university. Integral to this path is the placement of equity, diversity and inclusion as fundamental to our institutional culture. Our current academic plan outlines each as core values and we work to embed them in all that we do.
Toronto Metropolitan University welcomes those who have demonstrated a commitment to upholding the values of equity, diversity, and inclusion and will assist us to expand our capacity for diversity in the broadest sense. In addition, to correct the conditions of disadvantage in employment in Canada, we encourage applications from members of groups that have been historically disadvantaged and marginalized, including First Nations, Metis and Inuit peoples, Indigenous peoples of North America, racialized persons, persons with disabilities, and those who identify as women and/or 2SLGBTQ+. Please note that all qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, applications from Canadians and permanent residents will be given priority.
About the Department & Team
The CARE Lab is based within the Department of Psychology at TMU and is led by Dr. Sarah Dermody (she/her). We examine addiction risk from a multidisciplinary perspective—integrating psychological, behavioral, interpersonal, and biological risk factors to better understand the “how, when, why, and who” pertaining to addiction risk and risk for other negative health behaviors. Our ongoing research involves large scale national data, ecological momentary assessment research, and laboratory-based experimental studies. You can learn more about current laboratory members and research studies by exploring our website.
Over the past decade, the Department of Psychology has undergone unprecedented growth, with thriving MA/PhD programs in Psychological Science and Clinical Psychology. The Department has 39 full-time faculty members, 6 staff, 1000 full-time undergraduate students, 106 graduate students (33 MA; 73 PhD) and 9 postdoctoral fellows. Our faculty members are highly productive scientists and hold external grants from CIHR, NSERC, SSHRC, NIH, and other sources. In 2011, we partnered with St. Michael’s Hospital to establish a Clinical Psychology Training Clinic and in 2012, we launched the Institute for Stress and Wellbeing Research (over $1 million committed for research tools and infrastructure).
