Dec. 6, 2019 – PhD Graduate Studentship Available in the Pop-PA Lab
Dr. Guy Faulkner invites applications for a PhD studentship to start in September 2020 in the School of Kinesiology at the University of British Columbia (UBC). The focus of the studentship is examining the feasibility of mobile app-based interventions to increase physical activity among adults with depression.
The award of the studentship will be based on a competitive process. If awarded, it would be a full-time studentship (funded for 4 years) covering tuition, and a maintenance allowance. The maintenance allowance is currently $18,000 per annum. Additional teaching assistantships are typically available. The work location will be in the School of Kinesiology at UBC (Vancouver campus). Given the nature of the work some travel will be necessary. Candidates should meet admission criteria for the PhD program in the School of Kinesiology – http://kin.educ.ubc.ca/students/graduate/doctoral-program/. The successful applicant(s) will also possess excellent interpersonal and organizational skills. Applications should be made by January 30th, 2020.
