Institute of Mathematics
Technische Universität Berlin

PhD position in Combinatorial Optimization
Research Assistant (100% TV-L 13)
for up to 5 years

A PhD position is available in the "Combinatorial Optimization and Graph Algorithms Group" at TU Berlin (www.coga.tu-berlin.de<http://www.coga.tu-berlin.de>). The successful applicant will perform innovative research in the area of combinatorial optimization and also contribute to third-party funded research projects. Moreover, he or she will contribute to basic as well as advanced math courses as a teaching assistant, mainly in the area of algorithmic discrete mathematics.

Candidates should have an excellent academic degree in mathematics, computer science or a related area, and must have very good knowledge in algorithmic discrete mathematics and/or algorithm theory. Good communication skills and solid English writing skills are expected. Profound knowledge of combinatorial optimization and related areas are desirable. Teaching experience (e.g., as a student assistant) are of advantage.

Besides its many cultural attractions, Berlin offers a strong scientific landscape including three major universities, the international graduate program BERLIN MATHEMATICAL SCHOOL (www.math-berlin.de<http://www.math-berlin.de>), promoted by the German Excellence Initiative, and the DFG research center MATHEON (www.matheon.de<http://www.matheon.de>) as well as the Einstein Center for Mathematics Berlin ECMath (www.ecmath.de<http://www.ecmath.de>); these offer opportunities for joint research and support for PhD students (e.g., meetings, lecture series, international summer schools etc.).
