Graduate Positions
Position: Ph.D./M.Sc. positions in the study of synthetic organic/organometallic chemistry for the preparation of organic materials. Projects involve the development of synthetic methodology using transition metal catalysis, mechanistic investigations, and the characterization of organic molecules. Become best friends with an NMR spectrometer and all its glory.
Contact: Prof. Eric Keske
Position: Openings for M.Sc. and Ph.D. candidates in Chemical Physics and Chemistry. This is not your usual Brita filter. We make and understand carbon adsorbents from waste materials to clean up waste and store energy.
Contact: Prof. Andrew Vreugdenhil
Position: M.Sc./Ph.D. positions are available in the experimental study of color centers in nanodiamond and hexagonal boron-nitride as quantum-enabled nanosensors with high sensitivity and spatial resolution. Realistic applications include, superresolution (bio)imaging, nanothermometry and laser refrigeration, nanoscale magnetometry and electrometry.
Contact: Prof. Carlo Bradac
Position: M.Sc./Ph.D. position in theoretical condensed matter physics studying correlated quantum systems. Current projects focus on non-equilibrium states of matter stabilized by disorder, quantifying localization in systems with multiple degrees of freedom per site, and connecting with experimentally accessible measures.
Contact: Prof. Rachel Wortis
Position: Ph.D./M.Sc. positions in the study of microwave resonances in water-based objects (i.e. fruit in the microwave). Both experimental and simulation/theory projects await intrepid and curious students. Come work on something that will equally excite your niece and grandfather! Generous top-ups for scholarship-funded students.
Contact: Prof. Aaron Slepkov
Position: Ph.D./M.Sc. positions in nonlinear optical microscopy and biophotonics. Imagine showing your grandparents a cool microscopy image as an answer to their question of what you’re studying! Come learn data analysis, instrumentation, ultrafast laser photonics, spectroscopy & microscopy. Generous top-ups for scholarship-funded students.
Contact: Prof. Aaron Slepkov
Position: M.Sc./Ph.D. position in the modeling and simulation of quantum materials. Possible projects include simulations to explore strain-control of nanoelectronics, models of the thermal Hall effect in disordered superconductors, and simulations of doping-related disorder in high temperature superconductors.
