One or more Ph.D. positions in the UMass-URI Gravity Research Consortium (U2GRC) starting in September 2023. We are particularly interested in applicants looking to work in these specific research areas: gravitational-wave detector characterization, parameter estimation and detection, data-driven modeling, numerical relativity, and black hole perturbation theory.
How to apply?
U2GRC is jointly run by the University of Rhode Island (URI) and the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth (UMassD). Therefore, interested students would apply to either URI, UMassD, or both depending on their preference. Applicants seeking further information may contact u2grc-faculty -at- googlegroups -dot- com. The deadline for submitting applications is February 1st, 2023.
