Position Description
The Theoretical Particle Physics Laboratory (LPTP) at the Institute of Physics of the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne invites applications for one Ph.D. fellowship. Preference will be given to candidates with a solid basis in theoretical physics. The preferred starting date is Fall 2025, and the duration is 4 years. Candidates should have obtained a Master in Physics by the starting date. The LPTP is headed by Riccardo Rattazzi and will comprise, starting next fall, Marc Riembau as CERN/EPFL joint staff member. Research areas include quantum field theory, high-energy phenomenology, physics beyond the Standard Model and cosmology. Beside LPTP, there are other groups working in particle physics at EPFL (http://het.epfl.ch) and all have strong ties with nearby CERN. Applications should contain a cover letter, a brief illustration of research interests, a curriculum vitae, an academic transcript and at least three recommendation letters. A copy of the Master thesis can be optionally included if already completed.Application Materials Required:
Submit the following items online at this website to complete your application:
- Cover letter
- Curriculum Vitae
- Research statement
- Academic Transcript
- Master Thesis (optional)
- Three or more reference letters (to be submitted online by the reference writers on this site )
