About this position
The Motivation and Education Research Group at the University of Southern California, together with collaborators at the University of Michigan, Texas State University, and Arizona State University, is seeking a Postdoctoral Scholar-Research Associate for an NIH-funded project on an intervention designed to promote agency among diverse college students in introductory courses required for biomedical science majors.
The position is centered on the later stages of a longitudinal research project. The scholar will contribute to follow-up data collection, ongoing analysis, and writing up results and reports as the award moves through its fourth year. The work is closely tied to the research team’s broader effort to understand and improve student motivation and behavior in STEM-related college settings.
The successful candidate will work with the project PIs across multiple institutions, including Erika Patall at USC, Germine Awad at the University of Michigan, Carlton Fong at Texas State University, and Keenan Pituch at Arizona State University. Responsibilities include supporting research design and implementation, intervention development, data management, supervision of graduate and undergraduate research assistants, analysis, and dissemination. The role also involves coordination with grants administration staff, the research team, and participants to help ensure the project’s final stages proceed smoothly and in compliance with NIH policies.
This is a collaborative, multi-institutional research environment in USC’s Rossier School of Education, with a strong emphasis on quantitative analysis, longitudinal follow-up, and translation of findings from an intervention study in higher education STEM contexts.
