He has been a Distinguished University Professor at Ahmedabad University since July 6, 2016.

Ramadhar Singh has been conducting experimental research in management and psychology at the levels of individual (decision making, impression formation, interpersonal attraction), group (age-related changes, intergroup relations), organization (diversity, job satisfaction, leadership effectiveness,  prediction of performance, reward allocation), and society (cross-cultural differences, justice and fairness, intuitive prosecution, prediction of donation) since 1970. His articles have appeared in prime international journals of psychology (e.g., Asian Journal of Social Psychology, Basic and Applied Social Psychology, British Journal of Social Psychology, Child Development, Cognitive Development, Developmental Psychology, European Journal of Social Psychology, Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Journal of Research in Personality, Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, Personal Relationships, Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin, Personality and Social Psychology Compass, etc.) and management (e.g., Applied Psychology: An International Review, Journal of Applied Psychology, Omega: The International Journal of Management Science, Organizational Behavior and Human Performance, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, etc.).

Ramadhar Singh is a Fellow of the British Psychological Society (1992), Singapore Psychological Society (1992), Society for Personality and Social Psychology (1992), American Psychological Association (1993), Association for Psychological Science (1993), and National Academy of Psychology (NAoP) India (2008).
