Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Computational Modeling of Digital Education Data

The Hector Research Institute of Education Sciences and Psychology at Universität Tübingen, in collaboration with the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics, is recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in Computational Modeling of Digital Education Data. The successful candidate will apply theory-driven cognitive computational modeling to rich, intensive educational data from learning platforms and digital tools, developing independent research on topics such as learning, curiosity, motivation, and self-regulation. Applicants need a PhD in Psychology, Neuroscience, Computer Science, or a related field, strong expertise in cognitive computational modeling, and a demonstrated research track record; prior education-research experience is not required. The position is full-time (E 13 TV-L) for three years, with possible extension subject to funding.
