Research supervisor:
Irina Bobkova
PhD

Supervisor’s research interests:
Quantum condensed matter theory, including quantum materials based on hybrid structures under equilibrium and nonequilibrium conditions, superconducting spintronics, magnetization dynamics, magnonics and caloritronics.

Research highlights:
Our group have intense working relationships with leading research groups in the field (Finland, Germany, Norway). Students are rapidly involved into active research and international scientific cooperation, present their work at various international conferences.

Supervisor’s specific requirements:
We are looking for strongly motivated candidates. Knowledge of a standard university course of quantum mechanics is necessary, and skills of numerical computations are desirable.
