[DMANET] DIMAP PhD studentships

There are several

3-year PhD studentships

available at the centre for Discrete Mathematics and its Applications
(DIMAP), University of Warwick. The studentships cover a stipend and
tuition fees for UK/European students.

DIMAP is a multidisciplinary research centre supporting an
internationally competitive programme of research in algorithms,
combinatorics, optimisation, and probability. Potential research areas
include

- extremal or probabilistic combinatorics,
- discrete geometry,
- combinatorial optimisation,
- probability theory,
- discrete algorithms.

DIMAP offers a stimulating, internationally well-connected research
environment with a wide range of research expertise in Combinatorics,
the Theory of Computing, and Operations Research.

The PhD studentships are within the Warwick Mathematics Institute. In
the 2008 research ranking of all UK universities (RAE) Warwick's Pure
Mathematics was rated second, and Applied Mathematics came equal first
(with Oxford and Cambridge) for the proportion of its research rated as
"world leading".
