Select which track you want to apply for

Behavioral Research Fellows are generally interested in pursuing their PhD in Psychology, Organizational Behavior, or a related field. They work either for the Kellogg Behavioral Lab or with individual faculty to design experiments, conduct human subjects studies, and prepare replicability packages.

Empirical Research Fellows are generally interested in pursuing their PhD in Economics, Finance, Quantitative Marketing, or a related field. They work directly with 1 or more faculty on computational projects to collect, transform, and analyze research data.

You may submit more than one application

Listed below are all the current Research Fellow openings at Kellogg. Each opening corresponds to one of four applications: Behavioral, Empirical, Finance, and Strategy.

If you submit more than one position, please draft a different letter of interest for each submission.
