| We have a current graduate enrolment of about 70 students in the combined M.Sc. and Ph.D. programs, and we are aiming to increase our enrolment over the next few years. Many new faculty have been hired to complement the strong research effort that has been present in the department for many years. In the future we expect to hire several more faculty. The department is an intensive research environment and this will be apparent as you browse the web pages. The graduate students of the department are our most valuable resource – it is the students that make the research happen. It is crucial for the success of our research groups and for the success of your career as a scientist that the graduate students are enthusiastic, motivated and hard working in their approach to learning and discovering – we try hard to foster an environment where this is both possible and fun. In addition to the ‘work’, there is also a lot of opportunity for ‘play’. There are many activities for the graduate students organised by the graduate student entertainment committee, as well as other less organised activities. |
