Apply to be a Research Assistant
The FAM Lab is full for the Spring 2025 semester. We will be open for applications in Fall 2025.
Students enrolled in psychology courses at the Claremont Colleges are encouraged to get involved in research as a Research Assistant (RA). In this lab, RA responsibilities include engaging in community outreach and service in the LA area, recruiting research participants, collecting data with children and adults, coding behavioral tasks and video data, sharing information with families and community partners, and presenting research findings at scientific meetings and conferences.
If this sounds like something you’d like to do, apply to work with us! To apply, please complete this application form. Please note that relevant coursework in psychology and experience working with children are required.
