Recruiting for phd students!

Interested in studying child development with an emphasis on addressing actual educational problems or challenges? Check out our website to see if the UVA Curry School's Applied Developmental Science program is a good fit. Consider applying to work with me if you are interested in children's curiosity and question asking, how education impacts curiosity and how curiosity can support learning, how early play experiences can develop spatial skills, or what factors influence our gendered ideas about spatial play and STEM learning. Tangentially related research interests are welcome! Find more information about applying to our PHD program here. Finally, here's our program flyer for this year.
