The Cognitive Development Lab has openings for undergraduate research and intern
positions.

Students participate in laboratory activities for about 6 hours weekly. Depending on
experience, interest, and computer skills, you may

assist in operating video-based remote eye-tracker devices
analyze data by computer
program experiments
assist in experiments with infants (6 -24 months), preschoolers, or autistic children
recruit infant subjects and area preschools and schedule appointments
star in or help shoot short videos designed for babies and preschoolers
attend lab pizza parties!

You must be available at least one weekday morning and occasional Saturdays.
Excellent interpersonal skills are vital when working with parents and children.

Preference is given to students who are willing to stay at least two semesters or one
semester and a summer. Typically, students work for credit. The lab is well equipped
for Honors thesis research.

Summer fellowships and other funding may be available for outstanding students. Dr. Leslie has supervised many Departmental honors students, a number of whom have won departmental prizes for their work. Five students have also won prestigious Rutgers or Aresty Undergraduate Fellowships worth $2,000 and one student has won a Cooper Summer Research Award worth $5,000 for summer research in the lab.

If you want more information and an application, please send email to my graduate student, Lu Wang, or call (848) 445-4959.
