The boost you need to grow in Theoretical Physics

At NOVA+, we offer unique support: personalized mentoring, an active community, and real opportunities to help your talent grow and your scientific future take off.

Personalized mentoring

A Reference Mentor who will guide you through 6 sessions per year (one every two months) at minimum. If the Pair (mentor + mentee) decide to have more sessions, they are also welcome. Between meetings, you will work independently to keep moving forward. To stay in the program, you must attend at least 5 out of 6 sessions.

Community and networking

Motivation and recognition

We celebrate talent with the Best Academic Record Award and open doors to projects, conferences, and scientific activities that will enhance your career.

Resources and opportunities

Gain access to practical information on scholarships, academic processes, talks, workshops, and projects, plus academic resources to help you grow and move forward in your career

Program certification

Upon completion, you will receive an official NOVA+ certificate, recognizing your participation in the program and your mentoring achievements.

More than just a program, NOVA+ is a network of inspiration, guidance, and opportunities that opens paths and breaks barriers in theoretical physics..

Do you want to boost your scientific career or explore whether research could be your future?

Join NOVA+ and build your path with the support of a mentor, a community, and opportunities that will transform your future.

Important information for mentees: requirements

To be considered for selection, we need to know a little more about you. Please complete the mentee application form available through the “Form” button, and prepare your best CV, motivation letter and academic transcript (this document will only be used to better understand your academic journey; your average grade will not be a decisive requirement for access).

Once you have all the documents ready, please send them to NOVA at: nova.mentorado@gmail.com.

Your application will be reviewed once we have received all the required information.

You must be enrolled in a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in a Physics-related discipline during the 2026/2027 academic year.

Availability to participate in in-person activities at the IFT and the DFT will be positively valued.
