The Caltech Division of Physics, Mathematics and Astronomy (PMA) offers several endowed fellowships for distinguished postdoctoral scholars through its Experimental Physics and Astrophysics (EXP) Fellowship Program. Current fellowships include the Brinson, David & Ellen Lee, Clark B. Millikan, B. Thomas Soifer, Troesh, Barish-Weiss, and Braginsky-Whitcomb Fellowships.

The EXP program supports innovative experimental research across a broad range of fields, including Astrophysics, Atomic Molecular and Optical Physics (AMO), Biophysics, Condensed Matter and Soft Condensed Matter Physics, Cosmology, Gravitational Physics, High Energy and Low-Energy Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics, and Quantum Information.

Fellows are expected to conduct their research in affiliation with one of Caltech PMA's established experimental groups. Candidates in astrophysics must have a primary focus on instrumentation and/or experimental laboratory work to be eligible.

Applications open annually on September 1 on Academic Jobs Online.
