Undergraduate opportunities

Undergraduate research assistants

Our research depends in great part on the involvement of our undergraduate research assistants.  RAs  have the opportunity to participate in all aspects of research: generating interesting ideas that spark new projects, developing study designs, creating stimuli, recruiting participants, running study sessions, coding, entering data, and providing childcare. Because our RAs are active in so many parts of our research, we prefer RAs who are interested in working for multiple terms.  We also prefer RAs who have completed Psychology 303 Research Methods, but this is not a strict requirement.  If you are interested in joining our lab as an RA, please call us at 346-1987, or send an email to the lab coordinator at dabclass-AT-uoregon.edu.

Honors students

As part of the honor's program within the Psychology Department, some students design, carry out, and write up their own research projects.  The process of completing these projects gives students excellent experience that can help them a great deal as they pursue graduate programs or jobs after graduation.  Dr. Baldwin has served as thesis advisor for many students, and honors students in the lab have been able to work with adults, children, and even infants for their thesis research.  If you are interested in joining the lab as an honor's student, please send an email to Dr. Baldwin at baldwin-AT-uoregon.edu. She will contact you to discuss the fit of your research interests with her own and to set an appropriate timeline.
