Post-doctoral Positions and Fellowships

Each year Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics invites applications for postdoctoral positions, including named fellowships, from new and recent PhDs working in fundamental theoretical physics.

Our areas of research include: Cosmology, Mathematical physics, Particle physics, Quantum fields and strings, Quantum foundations, Quantum information, Quantum gravity, Quantum matter, Strong gravity

Importantly, research at Perimeter focuses on the intersections of those research areas. Most postdoctoral positions are offered for a period of three years. You may be eligible to hold a named four year postdoctoral fellowship. Senior five-year fellowships are also available. Fellowships may, in addition, be offered jointly between Perimeter and partner institutes and universities.Perimeter Institute offers a dynamic, multi-disciplinary environment with maximum research freedom and opportunity to collaborate within and across fields. We welcome applications from highly creative and intellectually adventurous theorists.

We welcome all candidates to apply by November 6, 2023 but applications will be considered until all positions are filled.
