We are seeking outstanding PhD candidates with interest and experience
in probabilistic combinatorics, in particular in random graphs. The
successful PhD candidates will pursue their PhD degrees within
Project 15 'Random graphs on a surface'
of the Doctoral Program 'Discrete Mathematics', under the supervision of
Univ.-Prof. Mihyun Kang as a member of the Combinatorics Group
(https://www.math.tugraz.at/comb/) at the Graz University of Technology.
For the description of possible PhD topics see
https://www.math.tugraz.at/discrete/index.php?link=projects&link2=15
Qualifications and condition of employment:
- Strong track record of mathematical studies
- Master's degree in mathematics or theoretical computer science is
required to be employed, but does not necessarily have to be awarded at
the time of application
Length and salary:
- PhD position is for up to 4 years
- There is additional funding for extended research stays abroad
and attendance of conferences
Application documents:
- curriculum vitae (academic CV)
- a short description of your qualifications and experience (i.e.
list or transcript of courses, Diploma or Master thesis)
- a cover letter describing your scientific interests and your
preferred research topics (possibly in connection with probabilistic
combinatorics, in particular with random graphs) as well as your
earliest possible starting date
Please merge your application documents into a single pdf-file. The
application consisting of a single pdf-file should be submitted by
e-mail to discrete@tugraz.at
Please mention in the application e-mail and in the cover letter that
you are applying for Project 15 'Random graphs on a surface' of the
Doctoral Program 'Discrete Mathematics'.
One to three confidential reference letters (one by their master thesis
advisor) should directly be sent to discrete@tugraz.at.
Application deadline: 20 February 2019
Interview:
selected candidates will be invited to interview, starting in early
spring 2019.
