Unser Profil:

As humans we have the basic need to connect with each other, to share our ideas and feelings. Language is the central instrument to meet this need. Yet successful social interactions require that the human brain masters not only the production and comprehension of speech.

Additional demands are placed on our cognitive system that engage processes enabling social cognition, interpersonal coordination, and multimodal sensory integration.

How do our brains accomplish this task? And how can technological advancements promote social interactions between humans, and between humans and machines? These questions we would like to address together with you at the newly founded research group at RWTH Aachen University.

The Institute of Psychology has a friendly and supportive working environment and offers exciting opportunities for inter
- and intra-departmental collaborations, including the Uniklinik RWTH Aachen and the nearby Forschungszentrum Jülich. Aachen is a city with a high quality of life located in the heart of Europe and immediately bordering The Netherlands and Belgium.


Ihr Profil:


  • You hold a doctoral degree in experimental psychology, social or cognitive neuroscience, social psychology, psycholinguistics, or a related field, ideally with excellent credentials
  • You have substantial experience in conducting research in social psychology, cognitive psychology and/or cognitive neuroscience
  • You are a team player and enjoy contributing to a collaborative working environment
  • You are keen on pursuing research questions at the intersections between language, communication, social cognition, social interaction or social robotics/cyberpsychology.
  • You are open for, and may already have experiences in, conducting research that crosses disciplinary boundaries
  • You enjoy supervising and fostering the development of students and junior researchers
  • You have an excellent written and spoken command of English
  • You have relevant scientific publications in international peerreviewed academic journals that are widely disseminated
  • Prior experience with EEG, programming skills and experience with codebased software (e.g., Matlab, Python, R, JavaScript) as well as German language skills would be an advantage

Ihre Aufgaben:


  • You will contribute to an innovative and internationally recognized research group
  • You will be engaged in teaching for the Bachelor and Master program in psychology with four courses/year (4SWS)
  • You will support building up our EEG laboratories
