positions as full-time PhD or PostDoc researchers. The positions are associated with
research projects at the group within the areas of discrete and combinatorial optimization,
continuous and infinite dimensional optimization, design, theoretical analysis, and
computational evaluation of optimization algorithms, game theory and economics.
The positions come with a teaching load of 5 hours per semester-week in the broad area of mathematical
optimization but can be adapted to the applicants background. We are looking for highly motivated candidates with a strong background in
mathematics, theoretical computer science, or operations research, who completed their master's or PhD degree or is about to complete it in 2022/23.
Profound knowledge of optimization (algorithms, mathematical programming etc.) and/or strong programming skills are a plus but not necessary.
The University of Passau owes its strong visibility and good repute to excellent research, innovative teaching and its tight-knit international academic networks.
Some 12,000 students and more than 1,200 staff study and work on our University campus, which is located a stone's throw from the historical Old Town of Passau and combines
state-of-the-art technical infrastructure with award-winning architecture.
Internationally successful high-tech companies and a vibrant start-up scene, coupled with a rich culture and Lower Bavarian traditions, give Passau
and the surrounding area a special appeal that makes it a great place to live and work. Passau University offers an environment where all talents can flourish,
regardless of gender, age, cultural background, nationality, or impairments.
We offer employment as a full-time doctoral or Post-doctoral scholar for initially up to three years, renewable for another two years, after positive evaluation.
Salary is competitive and funds for conference travels, participation in summer schools, and other activities are available.
