    About us:

    U of T Mississauga—the second largest campus of Canada's top-ranked university and the only research university in Ontario's booming Peel Region—is one of the world's great catalysts of human potential.

    Our employee community hums with the energy of 3,400 faculty, librarians and staff, who power our campus with curiosity, connection and care. We work together to spark life-changing research and innovation, make an indelible mark on the world by building equitable cities and societies, enable healthy lives, create a sustainable future and ignite entrepreneurship. Above all, we prioritize student success, and seek to give our 16,500 students the lift of a lifetime through learning and discovery. We love to open opportunities available nowhere else for our community to achieve their ambitions and make their unique contributions to Canada and the world.

    This work all comes together on a spectacularly green campus, alongside the Missinihe-ziibi (Trusting Creek or Credit River), where we seek to honour truth, reciprocity and reconciliation on the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, Seneca and the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. We're thrilled to welcome those who want to learn more about us and to be part of what we do.

    Your opportunity:

    Chemistry and Physical Sciences (CPS) is an interdisciplinary science department comprising Chemistry, Physics, Earth Sciences, and Astronomy. Our vibrant research labs examine questions such as how cells are programmed, how proteins function, how we develop materials for human health and sustainable future, how Earth's climate and biosphere change over time, how we monitor and predict natural hazards, and how students learn to approach these challenges. We offer undergraduate programs in Chemistry, Physics, Earth Sciences and Astronomy as well as interdisciplinary specializations in Biological Chemistry, Biomedical Physics, and Environmental Geoscience.

    Our students have access to state-of-the-art teaching laboratories, are involved in cutting-edge research projects in our research labs and pursue internships at a broad range of technology companies across the GTA. Few departments can offer as wide an array of experiences as can CPS, from mapping in the Andes to simulating protein folding, to building a laser trap. Our department is home to 25 full-time faculty, including award-winning educators and researchers, who supervise a total of 90 graduate students and 16 postdocs in the CPS research labs. About 40% of our faculty have been hired in the last 10 years, the result of a recruitment and renewal drive that is ongoing.
