Jochem Thijs

I am an associate professor at the department of Interdisciplinary Social Science and a researcher at ERCOMER at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. I studied social and cross-cultural psychology at Utrecht University and did my PhD in educational psychology at the University of Amsterdam.

My research interest is in (ethnic) relations in educational contexts, and the educational adjustment of ethnic minority children and adolescents.

I teach Introduction to Psychology and Cross-Cultural Psychology to bachelor students, and I am involved in the research master Migration and Ethnic Relations (MERM).

I am also an associate editor at the Journal of School Psychology.
