Part-time RA positions

​

Part-time research opportunities (volunteer, for course credit, or hourly payment) are available for research during summer and throughout the semester for undergraduate students. Projects range from online experiments on studying the cognitive architecture of typing behavior in humans to working with data from individuals with brain damage to better understand how the brain processes language. Students with programming backgrounds are especially encouraged to apply. 

​

During Covid-19 shutdown, all research is online and presence on campus is not necessary. However, CMU only allows hiring of personnel who are physically present in the US.
