The Institute of Biomedical Engineering at the University of New Brunswick,
Canada, invites interested Master's and PhD level students to apply for
fully funded Graduate Research Assistantships (GRAs), starting in the fall
of 2006. Students with Mechanical Engineering, Kinesiology and related
Health Sciences background are encouraged to apply. Undergraduate students
are also encouraged to apply for fully funded Undergraduate Summer Research
Assistantships (USRAs).
Successful applicant(s) will join a newly developed research program
concentrating on locomotion and balance/posture disorders in older adults.
Funding is provided through grants from NSERC (Natural Science and
Engineering Research Council of Canada) and other sources.
Students interested in GRAs should apply to the UNB School of Graduate
Studies via the following link.
