[DMANET] PIMS Postdoctoral Fellowship in Combinatorics at the University of Victoria

Dr. Peter Dukes, Dr. Natasha Morrison and Dr. Jonathan Noel are seeking candidates in the area of combinatorics to nominate for a Postdoctoral Fellowship from the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences (PIMS) to be held at the University of Victoria in Canada. If the nomination is successful, then the salary will be at least $60,000 CAD per year. All nominees will also be considered automatically for a PIMS-Simons Postdoctoral Fellowship, which provides additional salary support to selected outstanding candidates. The fellowship is for one year and is renewable, contingent on satisfactory progress, for an additional year. The starting date is flexible, between August 1, 2027 and January 1, 2028; other starting dates require approval from the PIMS Postdoctoral Committee. Applications should be submitted through mathjobs at https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/29344 by November 10, 2026. Shortlisted candidates will be invited for interviews in November. Candidates selected for nomination will then be directed to submit their application to PIMS for the second stage of the process before December 1, 2026. Informal inquiries can be made by e-mail to Peter Dukes (dukes@uvic.ca), Natasha Morrison (nmorrison@uvic.ca) and Jonathan Noel (noelj@uvic.ca). The University of Victoria has a thriving Discrete Mathematics Group, with an active community of faculty, adjunct professors, postdoctoral fellows, graduate and undergraduate research students, and a weekly seminar. We strongly value the experiences and qualities that people from diverse backgrounds bring to the group. As such, we particularly encourage applications from members of groups underrepresented in mathematics.
