The gravity group at the University of New Brunswick (www.math.unb.ca/~gravity/) is seeking students to begin masters (MSc) or doctoral studies (PhD) in September 2018 (or sooner). Applicants should have a degree in physics or mathematics from a recognized university.

The group consists of three faculty members: Viqar Husain, Sanjeev Seahra and Edward Wilson-Ewing. Typically, the group also includes 1-2 postdoctoral researchers, 2-4 graduates students and 1-3 undergraduate student members. Our main areas of research are general relativity and its modifications, quantum gravity and cosmology.

Please submit a complete CV, a cover letter describing your research interests, and a copy of your academic transcripts to MathJobs.org (link above at “External Link”). Additionally, you may also submit a publication list and arrange for up to three referees to submit reference letters to MathJobs.org directly. Informal enquires may be directed to any gravity group faculty member. Applications received by January 31, 2018 will receive full consideration, although later applications may also be considered.

Applications are invited from students interested in doing M.Sc. or Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics at the Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, under the supervision of Dr. Saurya Das, to work on Quantum Gravity, Cosmology and related areas, starting January 2015.
Applicants must have B.Sc., M.Sc. or equivalent in Physics/Theoretical Physics, and have an excellent grasp of its fundamental areas. Knowledge of advanced topics, such as general relativity and quantum field theory, and familiarity with computation and computational softwares such as Mathematica, Matlab, GRTensor etc will be an asset.
Please send your Statement, CV, Transcripts (scanned/electronic copies are fine), and arrange to send at least three letters of reference directly to saurya.das[AT]uleth.ca . Complete applications will be reviewed as and when they are received, until the positions are filled. Graduate students are supported by a combination of teaching and research assistantships, which is generally sufficient to cover tuition and living expenses.

The gravity group at the University of New Brunswick (http://www.math.unb.ca/~gravity/) is seeking students to begin masters (MSc) or doctoral studies (PhD) in September 2014 (or sooner). Applicants should have a degree in physics or mathematics from a recognized university.

The group consists of three faculty members: Jack Gegenberg, Viqar Husain and Sanjeev Seahra. Typically, the group also includes 1-2 postdoctoral researchers, 2-4 graduates students and 1-3 undergraduate student members. Our main areas of research are general relativity and its modifications, quantum gravity and cosmology. Group members have access to the ACEnet (http://www.ace-net.ca) high performance computing facility.

Please send a complete CV and arrange for up to three letters of reference to be sent to gravity.unb[AT]unb.ca. Informal enquires may be directed to any gravity group faculty member. Complete application packages must be received by February 1, 2014.

The Department of Physics of Osaka University is calling for applications to its International Physics Course (IPC).

It offers Master and Ph.D. courses on a wide range of research topics in Physics (see also the webpage below for more details). The most successful applicants will receive a scholarship.

Education and research is conducted in English (but students are welcome to learn a little of Japanese language and culture).

Applications for the admission to the academic year 2012/13 (starting from October 1, 2012) are open from November 1 to December 10, 2011.
