Join the Lab
If you are interested in joining the lab to begin or develop your academic career, to pursue an advanced degree, or to gain research experience prior to graduate studies, positions are available!
Ph.D. Positions: The Visual Cognition Lab is not accepting new graduate students at this time. Students interested in pursuing graduate studies in the Department of Psychology are encouraged to learn more about our terrific faculty and other potential mentors by visiting our website or by directly contacting professors to learn more about the research and training opportunities available
Undergraduate Positions: Due to COVID-19 related restrictions on lab occupancy and enhanced safety measures, the Visual Cognition Lab is not able to offer research assistant positions to non-returning undergraduate students. We are hopeful that we will be able to bring on new students in the Spring 2021 semester. Undergraduate research assistants work directly with faculty and other senior researchers to implement experiments by engaging in activities such as hypothesis development, stimulus creation, computer programming, participant testing, and data analysis. Students will broaden their academic experience by extending their learning outside the classroom, obtaining specific skills related to research, and developing applied critical thinking skills that are transferable to many careers. Students of all educational backgrounds are invited to join the lab, and these opportunities will be particularly helpful for those preparing to attend graduate school. Please contact Prof. James Brockmole at James.Brockmole@nd.edu to learn more.
