Postdoctoral Fellowships

The Complex Systems Group (T-13) is continually seeking applicants for postdoctoral fellowships at the Los Alamos National Laboratory.

Postdoctoral appointments are normally for two years and limited to candidates within 5 years of completion of PhD. Postdoctoral appointments at Los Alamos offer competitive salaries (starting at $64,000). Additionally, a generous and comprehensive benefits package is offered, including relocation reimbursement. Traditionally, Los Alamos National Laboratory has a vigorous postdoctoral program with the following distinguished fellowships:

Director funded postdoctoral fellowships: Two year fellowships awarded four times a year in a fierce laboratory wide competition: in February, May, August, and December. The application deadline is more than a month before the respective date.

J. Robert Oppenheimer and the Feynman fellowships: Prestigious three year postdoctoral fellowships awarded once a year in the December competition. The Feynman fellowship is intended for computational science and limited to US citizens. Both appointments are for three years, carry a significantly higher salary (starting at $97,000) and historically have led to a staff position at the Laboratory.

We strongly recommend that you directly contact the specific staff member in the group with whom you wish to work. To apply, please send a curriculum vitae including a publication list and the names and contact information of three names who may be contacted to provide letters of recommendation to that staff member.
