The Department of Applied Mathematics (KAM) at Charles University in Prague,
Czech Republic, invites applications for a faculty position at the rank of an
assistant professor in the area of optimization. The expected starting date is

We are looking for candidates that would strengthen the research in our group
in the area of optimization. For information about our research groups, see the
home page of KAM and of the closely related Computer Science Institute,
http://kam.mff.cuni.cz/ and http://iuuk.mff.cuni.cz/.
