Department: Research Support, Kellogg School of Management

Behavioral Research Fellows work with faculty and PhD students at the Kellogg School of Management, assisting with experiments and other behavioral research projects.

Research duties will vary from project to project, but may span all aspects of the research life cycle. Duties may include: reproducibility checks, literature reviews, designing experiments, programming surveys, testing, scheduling, and running experiments, and analyzing experimental results. Experiments occur in either a laboratory or an online setting and fellows are expected to work in-person.

We seek applicants who want to apply to a Ph.D. program in social psychology, marketing, organizational behavior, or a related behavioral science field in the pursuit of an academic research career. If selected, you will be offered a one-year appointment with a summer start-date, with the ability to renew for a second year based on performance. It is required that you complete at least a bachelor's degree before the start date.

The ideal candidate will have: (i) past experience with research, either as a research assistant or from doing independent research of one's own (ii) exposure to the methods and tools (e.g. Qualtrics, R, SPSS) commonly used in psychology experiments and data analysis (iii) and strong organizational skills and attention to detail. This position is well suited for someone who has exposure to psychology research, but wants more research experience before graduate school.

Your application must include a cover letter. In that letter, please describe your academic career goals and how a predoctoral appointment at Kellogg will serve those goals. Your letter should also mention if you have a special interest to work in a certain academic area or with specific Kellogg faculty.
