Call for Students

Join our research group exploring identity, emotion, and challenges in mathematics learning

Assoc. Prof. Einat Heyd-Metzuyanim at the Technion is seeking highly motivated Ph.D. and M.A. candidates with a strong interest in mathematics education, identity, and discourse. Applicants with a background in education, mathematics, psychology, linguistics, philosophy, or cognitive science are welcome.

Experience in mathematics teaching is a strong asset, but not a requirement. Proficiency in English and the ability to work independently and think theoretically are essential.

As a graduate student, you will take part in one of the current research directions:

  • Failure to Learn Mathematics (FTLM)
  • Identity and Emotion in Math Learning
  • Discourse and Complexity in Education

If you are passionate about understanding learning as a complex, dynamic, and socially embedded process, and want to contribute to theory-rich, discourse-based educational research, this may be a good fit for you.

Scholarships and student housing (dorms) are available upon additional conditions.

To apply, email Prof. Einat Heyd-Metzuyanim at einathm@technion.ac.il with:

  • A short paragraph describing your background and interests
  • Your CV
  • A transcript or record of grades from previous academic studies
