• Research Scientist (Behavioral Lab)

    New York University (New York, NY)


    The Department of Management and Organizations at the Stern School of Business, New York University, is looking to hire a post-doctoral research scientist in organizational behavior for academic years 2026-2027 and 2027-2028. Responsibilities include teaching a total of three 3-credit courses over the two-year appointment and managing the behavior lab (e.g., hiring RAs, implementing credit pool, etc).

     

    The post-doctoral fellow position provides an excellent opportunity for an emerging scholar to develop and extend their research program while gaining valuable teaching experience. Post-docs are highly encouraged to collaborate with departmental faculty and graduate students, to benefit from several speaker series, and to draw from the wide variety of intellectual resources available at NYU Stern.

     

    The Management and Organizations Department at Stern is diverse and interdisciplinary, and has long been recognized for its research and scholarship. In addition to our strong relationships with other departments and centers at Stern, we maintain close ties with NYU's Department of Psychology.

     

    In compliance with NYC’s Pay Transparency Act, the annual base salary range for this position is $61,500 - $102,500. New York University considers factors such as (but not limited to) the specific grant funding and the terms of the research grant when extending an offer.

     

    Candidates should have their dissertation defended by July 31, 2026 and must demonstrate strong potential in both research and teaching. The position may be particularly beneficial for those individuals who have done graduate work in a psychology department but are considering transitioning to a business school. However, all applicants who demonstrate strong promise are encouraged to apply, regardless of educational background.
