Masters and Ph.D. students, with strong academic standing, are encouraged to apply for Research Assistantship positions which match their research interests and qualifications. Below is a general overview of some RA positions available. Please note that not all RA positions are paid positions.
| Group | Position Title | Description | Contact |
| ECEM | Post-doctoral Fellowship in Closed-loop Anesthesia | Academic researcher with a PhD from electrical, computer, biomedical engineering, or engineering degrees with a strong background in control. A strong research background with demonstrated teamwork, resourcefulness and problem solving. Experience in advanced control algorithm development, adaptive control, and hybrid systems theory preferred. Experience working in a medical and/or healthcare field an asset. | Guy Dumont |
| LERSSE | Postdoctoral Research | Usable security, which aims at improving security of today computer systems by applying methods of human-computer interaction. | Kosta Beznosov |
| LERSSE | Postdoctoral Research | Distributed systems security, security and privacy of online social networks, web security, access control, authentication. | Kosta Beznosov |
| MINA | Postdoctoral Research Fellow - MEMS and Microfabrication | A postdoctoral fellow (PDF) position is available in a project focusing on novel MEMS-based implantable devices conducted in Prof. Takahata’s laboratory at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. We are seeking highly qualified candidates to fill the position immediately. | Kenichi Takahata |
| MINA | Protein-based Solar Cell | Seeking a graduate student who will contribute to the incorporation of photosynthetic proteins into solar cells with the aim of creating very low cost, environmentally friendly photovoltaics. Please apply to the UBC graduate applications web site and mention your interest in working with John Madden. | John Madden |
| MINA | Smart Voltage Driven Catheter | Seeking a graduate student eager to contribute to the development of a catheter that actively bends in response to applied voltage, enabling navigation into the brain to treat stroke. Please apply to the UBC graduate applications web site and mention your interest in working with John Madden. | John Madden |
| MINA | Artificial Muscle | Seeking a graduate student interested in investigating artificial muscle based on metal nanowires. These nanowires are stronger than steel and we hope to show that they can actively contract in response to applied voltage, creating the strongest 'muscle' known. Please apply to the UBC graduate applications web site and mention your interest in working with John Madden. | John Madden |
| MINA | PhD or MSc Research Assistantships in MEMS and microfabrication | (A) MEMS-based implantable/surgical devices for advanced medical diagnoses and treatments(B) Advanced micro/nanofabrication processes and application to MEMS and other emerging devices | Kenichi Takahata |
