A Postdoc Position at NYU Abu Dhabi

[Minsu Park]

Dear colleagues, 

We are inviting applications for a Postdoctoral Associate position in the Division of Social Science at NYU Abu Dhabi. 

We welcome candidates who have received (or will soon receive) a PhD in sociology, social psychology, computational social science, computer science, data science, or a related field (within the past five years). The position is expected to begin September 1, 2026, for up to three years. 

The postdoc will split their time between independent research (50%) and collaborative work (50%) with Mario D. Molina, Minsu Park, and Blaine Robbins. We are particularly interested in candidates working on social networks, group or organizational dynamics, and intergroup processes, using computational and/or quantitative methods. 

More details and application instructions are available here: https://apply.interfolio.com/173544

The deadline is May 1, 2026. Review of applications will begin immediately, and we may reach out to candidates with a strong fit prior to the deadline, with the aim of filling the position as soon as possible.

We also want to acknowledge that ongoing regional developments may raise concerns for potential applicants. While we hope for stable conditions, we are open to flexible arrangements (including a remote start, if necessary) to ensure continuity and support for the selected candidate. 

Please feel free to share this widely, and don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. 

Best regards, 

Minsu Park (on behalf of Mario D. Molina and Blaine Robbins)
