About St Luke’s International University

Basic information and contact details for St Luke’s International University

institution

St. Luke’s International University is a private, co-educational university in Tokyo, formerly known as St Luke’s College of Nursing. It has fewer than 700 full-time equivalent nursing and other medical students, including around 250 graduate students, and around 85 full-time teaching faculty.

It developed from the High Grade Nurse Training School, which was founded in 1920 by the Christian missionary physician, Dr Rudolf Bolling Teusler. This training school was attached to St. Luke’s Hospital, founded in 1920, which established a nursing school with 10 students in 1904.

It was chartered as a three-year college in 1954 and became a four-year college in 1964. In 1988 it became the first nursing college in Japan to offer a graduate doctoral course, the doctor of nursing practice (DNP) course. It gained its current name in 2014.

Today, there is one undergraduate college, the college of nursing, and three graduate schools: nursing science which offers master's programmes, public health offering master's and nursing science offering doctorates. A doctor’s course launches in April 2019.

It has an admission rate of 20 to 30 per cent, making it a very selective insulation. In 2003, the institution was chosen as a nursing centre of excellence (COE) under the 21st century COE programme of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.

The university offers a short-term student exchange programme in English for international students who wish to learn healthcare and nursing at St Luke’s College Of Nursing.

Students at St. Luke’s International University come from around the world, including China, the Philippines, Malaysia, Bangladesh, Egypt and Ghana.

At the University of Vienna more than 10,000 personalities work together towards answering the big questions of the future. Around 7,500 of them do research and teaching, around 2,900 work in administration and organisation. We are looking for a/an Senior Scientist 51 Faculty of Physics Startdate: 01.02.2026 | Working hours: 40 | Collective bargaining agreement: §48 VwGr. B1 lit. b (postdoc) Limited until: permanent Reference no.: 5023 “How does a quantum object gravitate?”, “How far can we push massive objects into the quantum regime?”, “How well can we measure gravity of microscopic systems?”. Such questions and their implications for the foundations of physics are the driving force behind our research. You will be part of our team and develop new ideas, technologies and experiments to provide new insights on macroscopic quantum physics, on gravity at small scales and, in the long run, on the phenomenology of the gravity-quantum interface in table-top experiments. Your personal sphere of play: As a Senior Scientist (Postdoc), currently limited to 6 months with the possibility of subsequent unlimited employment, you will be part of the Aspelmeyer group, and you will be exploring macroscopic quantum phenomena using levitated solid-state platforms. The main research activities of our group include quantum optical control of levitated solid-state objects, the exploration of their quantum properties for fundamental questions and novel quantum technology platforms, as well as precision measurements of ultra-weak gravitational forces. Our main motivation is to explore the interface between quantum physics and gravity with new experimental platforms. Our team is part of the Quantum Optics, Quantum Nanophysics and Quantum Information group of the Faculty of Physics. We are a member of the Vienna Center for Quantum Science and Technology (VCQ), one of the largest quantum hubs in Europe, and of the Austrian Cluster of Excellence (quantA), advancing basic research in quantum sciences, aiming to expand the frontiers of knowledge and thus being the engine for future innovations. The Aspelmeyer group explores the interface between quantum physics and gravity in experiments, in particular involving quantum objects as sources of gravity. On the quantum side, we explore the extreme regime of motional quantum states of solids and their interactions to understand how to maximize mass, delocalization, and coherence time in quantum experiments. On the gravity side, we explore the extreme regime of gravitational phenomena of miniature source masses to understand how to isolate gravity from all other interactions on a microscopic scale. Together with colleagues from theory we try to formulate meaningful questions that help to establish decisive experimental tests of the quantum nature of gravity. Your future tasks: Active participation in research, teaching & administration, which means: You build up an independent research profile in the field of levitated quantum optomechanics. You are involved in research projects and scientific studies in the area of macroscopic quantum phenomena and quantum control of solids. You publish internationally and give lectures.
