Applications are invited from students interested in doing M.Sc. and Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics at the Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, under the supervision of Dr. Heliudson Bernardo, starting in the Fall 2025 program. Potential research topics include Cosmology, Quantum Gravity Theory and Phenomenology, Physics in Curved Spacetimes, and Foundations of Quantum Mechanics. Applicants for the M.Sc. position must have a B.Sc. and those for the Ph.D. position must have an M.Sc. or equivalent in Physics/Theoretical Physics, and have a strong background in fundamental areas, including General Relativity and basic Quantum Field Theory. Knowledge of advanced topics in Theoretical Physics and familiarity with computational software and programming will be an asset.

Please send your Statement of Purpose, CV, and Transcripts (scanned/electronic copies are fine), and arrange for three letters of reference to be sent directly to the contact address below.

Complete applications will be reviewed until January 10, 2025, or until the position is filled, whichever is earlier. Graduate students are supported by a combination of teaching and research assistantships and scholarships which is generally sufficient to cover tuition and living expenses. Information about the department, research areas, and its graduate program can be found at http://www.uleth.ca/artsci/physics-astronomy  http://www.uleth.ca/artsci/physics-astronomy/meet-our-faculty-staff  http://www.uleth.ca/graduatestudies/  

The University of Lethbridge is committed to diversity and equity in employment and strongly encourages members of traditionally underrepresented groups to apply.
