Prospective Interns (e.g., undergraduate or high school volunteers)
Prospective interns should have a specific research focus that aligns well with current and upcoming projects in the B-RAD Lab, which you can learn about here. 

Qualities and qualifications valued in research assistants include, but are certainly not limited to: willingness and eagerness to learn; proactive work ethic; ability to work well independently and as part of team; time management; open and professional communication; enthusiasm to be involved in projects that interest you; academic excellence (GPA 3.5 or higher); prior RA experience, especially (though not necessarily) with children and/or clinical populations is highly recommended; must have strong interpersonal skills and be comfortable interacting with children and families.

Intern applicants will preferably commit to 9 hours per week (i.e., 3 credits for undergraduates); if needed, a commitment of 6 hours per week (2 credits) may be considered. At this time (Fall 2019), a one-year commitment is required.

Frequently asked questions:
  1. What if I do not have prior research experience?  Experience in research before joining the B-RAD Lab can be extremely valuable. However, I also consider other experience that prospective students have that is relevant to your research interest and/or includes hands-on experience with the population you are interested in. Research assistants with and without prior research experience both have plentiful opportunities to learn.
  2. What if I am not a Psychology major? It is not essential that prospective undergraduate research assistants major in Psychology. That said, experience related to the area of Psychology you are interested in, and that overlaps with the B-RAD Lab's research, can compensate for that. Additionally, some Psychology coursework and demonstrated knowledge of the field is necessary.
  3. How do I apply? If the B-RAD research seems like a good fit, please fill out the application form to the right. 
  4. What if I have more questions? Feel free to use our Questions/Comments section to contact us. Dr. Hudac or a research team member will try to return feedback within a few business days! ​
