Academic programs
Graduate and undergraduate studies in astronomy-related fields are carried out in multiple departments at UVic. Many students do some or all of their research at (an excellent option for students interested in instrumentation or in using their science programs) or at (especially for students interested in nuclear astrophysics).
Astronomy
More information on the graduate and undergraduate programs on the Department of Physics and Astronomy site. Research opportunities are described on this ARC website. See astronomy graduate courses planned for the next two academic years.
Mechanical Engineering
More information on research in can be found through the Department of Mechanical Engineering.
More information on graduate student research opportunities in (used in astrophysics) can be found through the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering site.
School of Earth and Ocean Sciences
For more information on graduate student research opportunities in the area of palaeoclimate (the evolution of planetary atmospheres), should contact at the School of Earth and Ocean Sciences.
Physics
