[DMANET] PhD or postdoc position on operations research and algorithmic economics at TU Munich, Germany

A PhD or postdoc position is available in the research group of Prof.
Martin Bichler (http://dss.in.tum.de) at the Technical University of
Munich, Germany.

We are looking for candidates with a strong interest in
interdisciplinary research at the intersection of computer science,
operations research, and economics. The main research themes of the
group are market design and optimization. The candidate shall either
work on the computation of competitive equilibria using computational
optimization (combinatorial, convex, bilevel, etc.) or on equilibrium
learning via machine learning techniques. Fluency in written and spoken
English is required. Programming skills are a plus.

The position is for 2 years with the possibility of extension. There is
sufficient travel money available to support conference and workshop
attendance as well as research visits to other groups internationally.

The starting date is negotiable; we are interested in filling the
position as soon as possible. The position is full-time and paid
according to salary grade 100% TV-L E 13 (the standard rate for junior
scientific staff at German universities; salary depends on experience
and amounts to at least 2300 Euro net per month).

Please submit your electronic application as a single PDF file and
include the reference "Application Equilibrium Computation" in the
subject line.

For full consideration, apply no later than 16.02.2020 to Martin Bichler
