Call for PhD or PostDoc Research Supervisors for international psychology students

Dear Colleagues,

The Junior Researcher Programme (JRP) is currently looking for six engaged PhD students and postdoctoral researchers in psychology (or related fields) to become Research Supervisors for the jSchool 2024. The jSchool is a volunteer-driven and non-profit initiative that enables psychology students from around the world to conduct a 13-month research project under the supervision of early-career researchers. If you are interested in this opportunity, you can find further details below. We kindly ask you to also circulate this announcement to anyone else who might be interested in becoming a Research Supervisor.

This year’s jSchool will take place from July 7th to July 13th, 2024, in Siena, Italy. This year’s theme will be Economy of Well-Being: Harnessing Behavioral Science for Resilient Societies. We understand the economy of well-being as a broad decision-making framework aiming to provide social justice, reduce inequalities, improve public health and well-being, and prioritize human and planetary needs. Research Supervisors propose a research project within the theme and then lead a team of six students to develop the study at the jSchool. All projects should be conducted in 13 months within the structure of the JRP. The programme finishes with the annual JRP Conference held at Corpus Christi College at the University of Cambridge.

All details are provided here and more information on the JRP and jSchool is available on our website. Before you apply, please make sure you have read the application guidance document published on our website. Applications are open until 23:59 CET on the 4th of February 2024. If you have any questions, you are very welcome to contact us.
