Description
Perimeter Institute invites students to join its world-leading research community for a part-time 10-week online school in theoretical physics beginning in May 2024. In addition, some of these students will also come to Perimeter to participate in groundbreaking research through a paid internship program. All students will learn research tools and collaboration skills while immersed (online or in person) in the multi-disciplinary environment of the world’s largest independent theoretical physics research centre.
Perimeter Institute’s PSI Start program consists of two parts, and is for students who intend to apply to a physics graduate program, such as Perimeter Scholars International (PSI) master's program, with a start date in 2025 or later. Students who will enter the final year of an undergraduate program in 2024, students who will begin a one-year Master’s program in physics or math in 2024, and others who intend to pursue graduate studies in theoretical physics may also apply.
