Bishop’s University recently partnered with Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics to host the Perimeter Scholars International Start Program (PSI Start) on Bishop’s campus in Sherbrooke. This is the first Canadian satellite of the PSI Start program, which offers students programming that serves as an entry point to learn about advanced theoretical physics. The program consisted of an online program and an in-person research internship. “This is about creating things that will improve our understanding of the world,” said Bishop’s Professor Valerio Faraoni. “Having this satellite program at Bishop’s demonstrates what is possible when a small university dares to think big. It’s not just good for our students—it’s good for Canada.”
