The selected candidate is expected to interact/collaborate with one or more of the GTQI Fellows. Below is the announcement for the 2008/2009 competition published in the May issue of Physics Today and IEEE spectrum. Note that the Fellowship is for either science or engineering people excited to work in the quantum information field. The specific research projects underway at GTQI are described on this website. Please contact individual GTQI Fellows about potential research for this Fellowship or additional postdoctoral positions within their research groups.

The Georgia Tech Quantum Institute at the Georgia Institute of Technology is offering a Prize Fellowship at the Postdoctoral Scholar level in quantum information science or engineering. The Fellowship will begin in Fall 2008 or Spring 2009 and is for one year renewable for a second year. It carries a yearly stipend of $56,000 and offers a research expense fund of $5,000 per year. This fellowship program has been established to offer exceptional scientists or engineers a unique opportunity to develop their expertise in quantum information science and/or engineering at Georgia Tech where cross-disciplinary programs in quantum information are emphasized. Outstanding atomic, molecular and optical science programs are available at Georgia Tech as well as engineering facilities and faculty involved in designing, fabricating and testing quantum information devices. Interested experimentalists or theoreticians with working experience in these areas are invited to apply. GTQI Postdoctoral Fellows are expected to work in close collaboration with one or more GTQI Fellows. Please apply online at http://www.gtqi.gatech.edu/positions. Electronic copies of the curriculum vitae with email address and citizenship indicated, a publications list, three letters of recommendation and a statement of research interests are required.
