Research Assistantship Call-Out

Research Assistant Positions

The Computational Cognition and Learning Lab is looking for motivated undergraduates interested in assisting graduate students in experimental psychology research for Summer 2017/Fall 2017 course credit in X397/X398, X497/X498.

Our lab studies human development and learning through both empirical studies and computational models. We are particularly interested in how language is grounded in sensorimotor experience and how language development depends on complex interactions among brain, body and environment. To learn more, please visit the lab website at http://www.indiana.edu/~dll/index.html

If you are interested in learning how to conduct research, and have 7.5 - 10 hours available a week, we're looking for you.  In addition to valuable research experience, you will receive lab class credit. More importantly, if you're considering graduate school, this is a great opportunity to see what working in a lab is really like. During your time in the lab, you will attend bi-weekly lab meetings, run subjects in experiments, score and analyze data, and help design new experiments.

No prior lab experience is necessary, but relevant skills such as experience working with children or computer science background may be considered.

For more information, please contact Anting Chen at antchen@indiana.edu.

Please include the following information:
  • Your Name
  • Year in School (freshman, sophomore, etc)
  • Number of hours available to work and tentative time blocks available (please indicate Summer 2017 or Fall 2017)
