The Georgia Institute of Technology is a top 10 public research university with nearly 40,000 students who study in person at the main campus in Atlanta, at Georgia Tech-Europe in France, as well as through distance and online learning.

Georgia Tech is distinguished by its commitment to improving the human condition through advanced science and technology.
Accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), the Institute offers nationally recognized undergraduate and graduate programs in the colleges of business, computing,
design, engineering, liberal arts, and sciences.

The Office of Graduate and Postdoctoral Education (GPE) is a unit of the Office of the Provost with a mission that supports Georgia Tech's mission by providing services, advocacy, and
development programs for graduate students and postdocs, as well as oversight and strategic initiatives to graduate education.

We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher who will work under the guidance of Dr. Gaeun (Gwenn) Seo, Director of Graduate Career Development in the Office of the Vice Provost for Graduate and Postdoctoral Education at Georgia Institute of Technology. The postdoc will contribute to a multi-year, federally funded research initiative that examines how industry-engaged graduate funding structures shape Ph.D. student success, faculty research environments, and institutional policy. This project will examine industry-engaged flexible graduate funding models that combine traditional funding mechanisms (e.g., research assistantships, fellowships) with externally supported funding, such as internships and industry-sponsored appointments. The study will compare outcomes for Ph.D. students in these flexible funding arrangements with regard to financial security, research engagement, career decision-making, and time to degree, as well as impacts on faculty research strategies, mentoring practices, and institutional policies. Using a mixed-methods design, the project will integrate surveys, interviews, and longitudinal institutional data across STEM disciplines and stakeholder groups.

The postdoctoral researcher will play a central role in this work, with primary supervision provided by Dr. Seo and additional input from the projects PI/CoPIs. The postdoc will contribute to the design and implementation of data collection instruments, conduct quantitative and qualitative analyses, and synthesize findings to generate evidence-based insights that inform institutional decision-making. Through regular engagement with the research team, the postdoc will support the translation of empirical results into scholarly publications and actionable guidance for institutions seeking sustainable and scalable approaches to graduate education funding.

This is a two-year, renewable position contingent on performance. The postdoc will receive research and professional development mentoring and, as time permits, may pursue related projects and develop an independent line of scholarship aligned with the broader research agenda.

Key Responsibilities -

• Design, pilot, and implement quantitative and qualitative data collection instruments (surveys, interview guides) in collaboration with the research team and an external research consultant.
• Conduct data cleaning and management and analyze quantitative and qualitative data, including longitudinal institutional datasets
• Apply statistical modeling techniques (e.g., regression, factor analysis, SEM) and qualitative coding methods.
• Contribute to manuscripts, conference presentations, and public dissemination of findings.
• Participate in interdisciplinary team meetings and collaborate with faculty, administrators, and external partners.
• Support IRB coordination and ensure compliance with NSF data management and human subjects protocols.

Required Qualifications

• Ph.D. in Education, Educational Psychology, Higher Education, Human Resource Development, Learning Sciences, Educational Policy, or a related field (degree must be completed by appointment date).
• Demonstrated expertise in mixed-methods research, with strong quantitative analysis skills.
• Experience designing or implementing surveys and analyzing large datasets
• Proficiency in statistical software (e.g., SPSS, R, MATLAB, or Python)
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including experience preparing manuscripts or reports.
• Ability to work collaboratively with faculty, administrators, and research partners in higher education settings.

* Experience in implementing educational research in higher education

* Knowledge of higher education research, graduate education, or workforce development.

* Experience in longitudinal or institutional data analysis.
