The Institute for Computational Cosmology (ICC) is a leading international centre for research into the origin and evolution of the Universe at Durham University . We address some of the most fundamental questions in science: What were the first objects in the Universe? How do galaxies form? What is the nature of the dark matter and dark energy? Where does the large-scale structure of the universe come from? What is the fate of the Universe?

Durham International Fellowships 2016 (COFUND) Durham is offering 21 Junior and 24 senior COFUND Fellowships. The call for applications is now open. The deadlines are as follows: Junior Fellowships - Friday 04 December 2015 Senior Fellowships - Friday 08 January 2016

The ICC is part of the Ogden Centre for Fundamental Physics and interacts closely with the Centre for Extragalactic Astronomy and the Centre for Advanced Instrumentation in the Department of Physics. We offer both PhD and Msc postgraduate studentships.

Newsletter: The ICC's May 2015 newsletter is available for download.
