The following are some recent updates and additions to the information offered at CSA’s website about educational opportunities in cryogenics and superconductivity, both in classrooms and nontraditional settings, in the US and around the world. This information is divided into four groups and appears on the Cryo Careers page of the CSA site.
• Georgia Tech’s information has been updated to reflect a change in address for the Cryo Lab.
• At MSU, the undergraduate class in cryogenics is no longer being taught, though there is a strong program in Superconducting RF research.
• At Tufts University, Dr. Luisa Chiesa regularly teaches a graduate-level class on cryogenics and superconductivity. Information about her research has also been updated.
• Information about undergraduate courses at the School of Engineering at Lorena from the University of Sao Paulo (EEL USP) has been updated.
• Small updates were made to the description of courses offered at TU-Dresden and to the related “European Course of Cryogenics.”
• University of Victoria has been added to the list of universities outside of the US. This institution offers an elective/graduate course in Cryogenic Systems to Mechanical Engineering students.
• KTH (Royal Institute of Technology) has added a course in Condensed Matter Theory, which is offered at the graduate level.
• Guy Gistau Berger has added more detail about his basic course in cryogenics and helium refrigeration.
• An updated course description has been added by Cryoco LLC. Cryocourses.com is no longer a division of Redstone Aerospace. There is also new information about continuing education credits.
CSA will continue to collect information on relevant educational institutions and opportunities, and we need the help of our membership and readership.
Know of an opportunity not listed here, or want to update your institution’s information?
Please send us a description of the program and include program/course objectives, prerequisites, website and contact information, if possible. We are also collecting information on scholarships and assistantships.
Help us make this a comprehensive resource for students seeking educational opportunities in cryogenics, low temperature physics and superconductivity.
