Future graduate student research opportunities: Faculty of Science

  • An opportunity to work with the Waterloo Coastal Group examining the response and recovery of coastal barriers and other environments to changes in water level, storm activity and ice cover in the Great Lakes and in the maritimes. The research ranges from geophysical surveys and geochronology of coastal systems to UAS-based remote sensing and advanced geospatial analysis of scale-dependent landscape morphology and evolution.

  • Seeking MSc and PhD students to work on projects to understand the universe and what drives its evolution. The expansion of the universe is accelerating, and we do not know why. Dark energy, the name given to the mechanism driving this expansion, is unknown. Graduate students will analyze the latest cosmological data to further our understanding.
