Graduate programs in computational physics are being sought, particularly with a focus on quantum specialization. Recommendations emphasize the importance of identifying potential advisors engaged in computational research that aligns with personal interests, as many fields within computational quantum physics exist. It's noted that several chemistry departments conduct significant computational work, especially in areas like density functional theory (DFT), which may be relevant for those interested in computational physics. While specific programs in the U.S. are limited, the University of Southern California's CACS is highlighted as a notable option. Additionally, exploring computer science and applied mathematics departments may yield relevant opportunities. Canadian universities offering programs in computational physics or mathematics are also requested for further guidance.
