[DMANET] Postdoc and PhD positions in TCS at Lund University (deadline Jan 31)

The Department of Computer Science at Lund University invites applications for up to two PhD positions and one postdoc position in theoretical computer science with focus on computational complexity and algorithms.



The PhD students will be working in the research group of Susanna de Rezende. These are four-year full-time employed positions, but PhD positions usually (though not necessarily) include 20% teaching, in which case they are prolonged for one more year. The starting date is negotiable but ideally during the autumn 2024. The positions are fully funded, employed positions (including travel money) that come with an internationally competitive salary.

There is a growing research group in theory of computing at Lund University. We expect to have 8 PhD students by the autumn, in addition to three faculty and some MSc students.

Lund University is located in the Öresund area, which is offering one of the strongest and most exciting environments in computational complexity research in Europe. There is extensive collaboration with the University of Copenhagen (UCPH), the IT University of Copenhagen (ITU), and the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) on the other side of the Öresund Bridge. In particular, we will be collaborating with the MIAO research group, which is active at both Lund University and the University of Copenhagen. The PhD students can also look forward to interacting with the four additional faculty in complexity theory in Copenhagen, together with their students and postdocs, as well as with the algorithms group at the Basic Algorithms Research Copenhagen (BARC) centre.

The application deadline is Jan 31, 2024 at midnight local time. See https://derezende.github.io/openpositions/ for more information and instructions on how to apply. Informal enquiries are welcome and can be sent to susanna.rezende@cs.lth.se<mailto:susanna.rezende@cs.lth.se>.
