Industry Postdoctoral Fellowship
Connecting innovation to industry
The Industry Postdoctoral Fellowship (IndPDF) Program matches outstanding postdoctoral researchers with leading ocean companies to deliver the best talent to accelerate innovation and foster new partnerships. Postdoctoral fellows have the opportunity to increase the impact of their research through broad industry opportunities while gaining meaningful professional development experiences. Industry partners get access to top minds and university resources through an efficient matching and placement program.
This program is currently being offered as a pilot initiative, pending final Transforming Climate Action governance approval. While all core elements are in place, some aspects may be refined as the program evolves. Participation during this pilot phase offers a unique opportunity to help shape the program’s future direction.
This postdoctoral fellowship offers benefits to industry and postdoctoral fellows.
Expressions of interest will be evaluated and matched with collaborators as appropriate.
Applications and projects will be considered on an on-going basis.

OFI is committed to fostering a collegial culture grounded in diversity and inclusiveness.
We encourage applications from Indigenous persons, persons with a disability, racially visible persons, women, persons of a minority sexual orientation and/or gender identity, and all candidates who would contribute to the diversity of our community.
Maximum effort will be made to promote opportunities to traditionally underrepresented groups.
Scientific integrity and transparency always serve as guiding principles for university-industry collaboration.
Our researchers and industry partners are dedicated to upholding the highest standards of honesty, objectivity, and academic freedom.
