The EDJI Lab offers opportunities for undergraduate and post-bachelor student Research Assistants. Responsibilities typically include designing experiments and materials, conducting experiments, coding and analyzing data, participating in laboratory discussions, and presenting data at conferences.We ask for a minimum 12 hr/wk commitment, for a minimum of two semesters. This arrangement allows you and the lab group to benefit from your training and skills. Post-bachelors students, Freshman, Sophomores, and Juniors are particularly encouraged to apply. RAs typically have a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0.

Undergraduate students work in the lab in a variety of capacities including: academic credit (independent study), UROP undergraduate fellowships, senior honors, and volunteering. The lab has a very good record of helping students reach their post graduation goals, including admission to grad school in Psychology, Law, and Business (e.g., Colorado, Northwestern, NYU, Stanford, Chicago, Virginia).
