Job description:
The University of Zurich is seeking students with a masters in physics
and a focus on particle physics to apply for a PhD position. UZH has
a well-established experimental group searching for heavy TeV-scale particles
decaying into boosted jets with substructure at CMS. We also have leading groups in
theoretical calculations of high-order QCD necessary for predicting experimental
observables. We are searching for a PhD candidate who will work closely with both
experimentalists and theorists, led by Professor Kilminster and Professor Gehrmann,
respectively, to measure processes that interlink new particle searches and QCD.
The PhD topic offers a unique opportunity to the successful candidate to work at the
interface of theory and experiment in elementary particle physics. We look forward to
your application. Please submit applications using the
"Joint Theoretical/Experimental Particle Physics" checkbox on the application form
available at :

Instructions for reference letters and application materials are available on this webpage.
