Prospective Lab Managers and Postgraduate Research Assistants
We are not currently hiring lab managers or postgrad research assistants.
Prospective Postdocs and Visiting Researchers
Our group is too small to train visitors or (unenrolled) students in experimental methods, and there is no infrastructure in the psychology department for visitors in theoretical linguistics. On rare but rewarding occasions, we have welcomed visitors who actively contribute to experimental or modeling work on language for shorter or longer visits. If you are interested, please see the Princeton website for information about formal and financial requirements for visiting graduate students or visiting postdocs.
For German postdocs or researchers no more than 12 years since PhD, it is possible to apply for funding from the Humboldt Foundation’s Feodor Lynen Research Fellowship.
For potential postdocs who contribute to the University’s excellence and its diversity, broadly defined, and hope to join a cohort of scholars in fields across science, engineering, social sciences, and the humanities, Princeton appoints 12 postdocs each year. The program is open to all eligible scholars, regardless of identity.
For prospective Chinese postdocs, see the Peking-Princeton Postdoctoral Program
If you are instead interested in visiting the linguistics program at Princeton, contact Marie L. Basso <[email protected]> for information.
Prospective Undergraduate Thesis Students and Research Assistants
We are often looking for research assistants and thesis students. Princeton students interested in becoming an RA or conducting a thesis or junior paper in the lab should contact Prof Goldberg at [email protected].
