Undergraduate Theoretical Physics Summer Program

Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics is now accepting applications for the Undergraduate Theoretical Physics Summer Program.

The program invites 20 exceptional students to join its research community for a fully-funded two-week summer school. Students will learn research tools and collaboration skills in the multi-disciplinary environment of the world's largest independent theoretical physics research centre.

This program consists of two parts:

  1. Two-week Summer School (fully-funded): Students are immersed in Perimeter's dynamic research environment -- attending courses on cutting-edge topics in physics, learning new techniques to solve interesting problems, working on group research projects, and potentially even publishing their work. 
  2. Research Internship: Applicants may also be considered for a paid summer research internship. Accepted interns will work on projects alongside Perimeter researchers. 

The program is accepting applications for the summer school beginning May 25, 2020.
