Collaborative agreements with external stakeholders

Theoretical physics uses mathematics as a unifying language to describe the origin and structure of matter at length scales from atoms and molecules to stars and galaxies. New states of matter have been discovered that do not fit in the familiar 20th century framework, including invisible “dark matter”, superconductors at high temperatures, and building blocks for a quantum computer. The Delta-Institute for Theoretical Physics unites researchers with diverse backgrounds for the exploration of these new states of matter.

External stakeholders

The scouting and training of the most talented students is of great importance for the scientific program outlined. Ultimately, it is the upcoming generations of PhD students and postdocs who will execute much of the research proposed in the D-ITP proposal. This top-talent is also one of our deliverables for society. A training in theoretical physics is highly valued in many settings where superb analytical and computational skills are demanded. To emphasize this important fact, and as a demonstration of commitment, we have prepared collaborative agreements with external stakeholders in which:

  • They acknowledge the importance of the type of training students in theoretical physics receive for industry and society;
  • They agree to serve on the Industry Advisory Council of D-ITP (detailed in the previous section);
  • They agree to collaborate more closely, in particular in order to provide better opportunities for students to do internships, follow master classes, etc.

One such collaborative agreement was included at the end of the proposal. The others are available for download below.
