Are you interested in working with us? We are currently looking for students who want to start their MSc or PhD program in Fall 2025. If you are an undergraduate student who wants to work with me, please reach out with your CV, unofficial transcript and explain why you chose the ASGAARD lab. Then we can discuss if there are any opportunities for doing a DRA or co-op project (note: these undergraduate opportunities are only for University of Alberta students).

A few good reasons to join our lab:

Please contact us with your CV, your unofficial transcripts, and a short explanation of why you would like to work with us. You will get bonus points for indicating on which research topic you would like to work. If you have a cool software engineering-related idea that does not directly fit into what we have worked on in the past, please do not hesitate to contact us. As you can probably tell from our papers, our research interests are quite broad. Please note:

  • Make sure to show in your email that you are actually interested in our work. Generic application e-mails (especially those that are addressed to multiple professors!) will be ignored.
  • To make it easier to ignore spam applications, please include the word ‘cookiemonster’ in your application e-mail. All application e-mails without this word in either the subject or contents will be ignored.
  • If you do not have a computer science, computer engineering or software engineering background, you will have to try very hard to convince us about why you want to switch to software engineering.
  • You will be asked to do small reading and programming assignments and a Zoom call.
