Developmental Psychology PhD Program, University of Miami

The Developmental Psychology Area at the University of Miami is recruiting graduate students for fall 2021. Supportive mentoring relationships with individual faculty members are the keystone of research training in our program. A dynamic and dedicated faculty is pursuing groundbreaking basic research (emotion, language, cognition) and applied research (anxiety, autism, [pre]school settings) in diverse South Florida communities. The developmental program is designed to be completed in four to five years of residency. The application deadline is December 1, 2020. Applying students should contact prospective developmental faculty mentors: Jennifer Britton, Daryl Greenfield, Daniel Messinger, Lynn Perry, Rebecca Bulotsky Shearer, and Liz Simpson.

The Developmental Program trains doctoral students for productive careers in teaching and research—both inside and outside of the academy. Student engagement in mentored research is the basis of training. Brown bag meetings provide students with additional opportunities for collaboration and productivity. Students in our graduate program typically receive full tuition remission and a research assistantship stipend. The program has a strong track record of assisting students in obtaining highly competitive graduate fellowships that support professional development. Student offices are located in the Department's Flipse Building, which houses the Center for Autism and Related Disabilities and contains classroom and laboratory space.
