As positions in the lab become available, they are posted promptly on this page. There are no paid or volunteer positions available aside from the ones indicated below. Due to a high volume of e-mails, inquiries about unannounced positions may go unanswered. Thanks for understanding.
Undergraduate research assistantships:
While we don’t currently have any openings (volunteer/course credit/work-study), UC Berkeley undergraduates are welcome to contact graduate students whose work interests them. Grad students in our lab select their own r.a.’s, so there is no need to e-mail Professor Bunge with inquiries. We give priority to UC Berkeley students and to students applying through diversity programs.
Full-time research positions:
Thanks to everyone who applied for our lab manager position! There were many qualified applicants, including one who was a perfect fit, and our search has culminated in a successful hire. Applicants: best of luck in your search for the right position.
Graduate applicants:
We do not plan to recruit a new graduate student for the foreseeable future. We would accept interested rotation students from the Neuroscience program in 2012 or 2013, but please note that Professor Bunge is not a member of the Neuroscience Graduate Admissions Committee. As such, it is not necessary to e-mail her in advance of being invited for an on-campus interview.
Postdoctoral fellows:
Professor Bunge welcomes e-mails from qualified Ph.D. candidates and recent Ph.D.s who are in a position to apply for external postdoctoral fellowships to join the lab in analyzing and writing up the results of our large-scale and multi-faceted longitudinal study of reasoning development.
