Technische Universität Berlin
PhD position in Discrete Optimization
Research Assistant (100% TV-L 13)
for up to 5 years
starting October 1, 2020, or later
A PhD position is available in the newly created "Discrete Optimization" group at TU Berlin that has strong ties with the "Combinatorial Optimization and Graph Algorithms" group (www.coga.tu-berlin.de). The successful applicant will perform innovative research in the area of discrete optimization and related fields 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) is of advantage.
Besides its many cultural attractions, Berlin offers a strong scientific landscape including three major universities, the DFG funded mathematics research center MATH+ (https://mathplus.de) as well as the internation graduate program Berlin Mathematical School (www.math-berlin.de); these offer opportunities for joint research and support for PhD students (e.g., meetings, lecture series, international summer schools etc.).
