Academic Level:
Graduate Students (Masters)

Description:
Perimeter Scholars International (PSI) is a master's program focused on theoretical physics, designed to bring exceptionally motivated and highly qualified graduate students to the foreground of cutting-edge physics while offering an intensive and interactive training environment. PSI is a condensed 10-month program offered in collaboration with the University of Waterloo.

Perimeter Scholars International: a different kind of master's program. Taught by academic staff and faculty at Perimeter Institute and by some of the world's top physicists, students at PSI are fully integrated into the unique international culture and dynamic research atmosphere at Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics - a leading centre for education - while earning a Master of Science from the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada.

PSI is the perfect program for you if:

-You know you want to pursue theoretical physics, but have not yet committed to a sub-field (such one of Perimeter's research areas). The PSI program will expose you to the full breadth of theoretical physics allowing you to discover your area of interest.

-You want to continue your studies with a PhD, working under the guidance of a Perimeter faculty member.

-You value academic excellence, inclusion, collaboration, creativity and innovation which are pillars of PSI values.

-You are interested in conducting research-driven coursework alongside some of the world's leading theoretical physicists.

-You want to immerse yourself in theoretical physics, push your limits, and experience a once-in-a-lifetime physics "boot camp" among like-minded peers from around the globe.

All participants receive full funding, tuition waiver, free meals and housing.
