Research Assistants

Thank you for your interest in joining the Deepest Beliefs Lab! RAs play a key role in our research and we are always looking for new members who are interested in the topics we study. We are not planning on recruiting any new RAs in the Spring 2026 semester. Future opportunities will be posted on our website.

To express interest in the lab, please complete this form detailing your interest in the lab. You are also welcome to reach out to our lab manager expressing your interest. If a role becomes available, you will receive an email from a lab manager or graduate student with more information.

Please note that positions are highly competitive. We generally select individuals who are willing to volunteer at least 6 hours per week (or 9 hr./wk. for course credit) but that is not a strict criterion. While previous research experience is a bonus, it is not a requirement. Unfortunately, paid positions are scarce, so most positions will likely be on a volunteer basis or for course credit.
