Patrick Beymer

Patrick Beymer, Assistant Professor of Psychology at the University of Cincinnati, is recruiting a doctoral student to join the Department of Psychology and work with the HIVE Lab on motivation, engagement, and emotions in STEM education. The research examines how students’ beliefs and behaviors develop across STEM courses. The lab designs motivational interventions and uses intensive longitudinal methods to study expectancy, value, and cost; self-regulation; STEM persistence; and academic and career development. The doctoral student will contribute to research connecting motivational processes with students’ experiences and development in STEM learning environments. The opportunity offers an academically focused research setting within the University of Cincinnati’s psychology community and the HIVE Lab.
