Summer trainees 2010
Low Temperature Laboratory of the Aalto University will hire 2nd - 4th year students as summer trainees and diploma workers. The trainee period is between June and August unless agreed otherwise. Later it will be possible to get a half- or full-time work in the laboratory and thereby a start for an academic career.
All those interested in the positions are asked to register by using the enclosed web-form by Wednesday 10th February 2010. Together with the applications we expect to get transcripts of your study records and a free-form curriculum vitae as instructed in the web form. The choice will be made according to the study record so far, taking into account the courses passed, their grading, practical work, and the time it has taken to carry them out. Further information on the lab can be obtained at the laboratory home pages, the below links to the research group pages and from the financial secretary Pirjo Muukkonen (tel. 09-470 24959, email pirjo@neuro.hut.fi).
Summer trainees will be hired in the following research groups (follow the links for further information on the groups and summer jobs in them):
- LT/Rota Group: Coherent quantum matter - laboratory experiments from quantum turbulence to cosmology and the associated modeling of the effects (Prof. Matti Krusius and Dr Risto Hänninen).
- LT/Nano Group: electronic quantum phenomena in nanostructures (Prof. Pertti Hakonen)
- KVANTTI-group: Quantum superconducting devices and high-frequency properties of nano-engineered materials (PhD Sorin Paraoanu)
- Nano Theory group: Nonequilibrium quantum mechanics, quantum transport theory, superconductivity, spintronics and quantum nanoelectromechanical systems (Doc. Tero Heikkilä)
- Brain research (Prof. Synnöve Carlson, Doc. Nina Forss, Acad. Prof. Riitta Hari, Doc. Veikko Jousmäki, Doc. Elina Pihko, Acad. Prof. Riitta Salmelin and Doc. Simo Vanni). Further information also from the addresses
We will organize laboratory tours for the applicants:
