About this position
Royal Military College of Canada is advertising a PhD research opportunity for nomination to the Canada Impact+ Research Training Award (CIRTA), with a related graduate research environment also noted for MSc-level study in the Grandy Lab.
The project is based in the Laboratory of Radiation Induced Material Damage at RMC and focuses on radiation-induced material damage, metal corrosion, electrochemistry, materials science, metallurgy, and radiation chemistry. The research uses advanced electrochemical techniques to study how radiation affects corrosion in metals, with applications in the nuclear industry. The lab also mentions work with localized electrochemical probes and the SLOWPOKE-2 nuclear reactor, and emphasizes both fundamental and applied research in a supportive, interdisciplinary group.
Funding: CIRTA award holders receive a PhD scholarship of $40,000 per year for 3 years. The award is tied to Canada’s priority research areas, including clean technology and environment, climate resilience, and the Arctic.
Eligibility: RMC will only consider citizens or permanent residents of Canada, NATO member countries, Australia, or New Zealand. Nominees must not have a current affiliation with a Canadian institution and must be studying or working abroad at the time of nomination. Canadian citizens may also be eligible if they previously left Canada for research and/or work experience outside Canada and wish to return.
How to apply: Interested candidates should email [email protected] with a CV, transcripts, a short research statement (up to 150 words), and confirmation of CIRTA/RMC eligibility. Applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis until 2026-05-29, and approved nominations are submitted to the Tri-Agencies by 2026-06-03.
Institution: Royal Military College of Canada, Canada.
