[DMANET] PhD/postdoc position in RWTH's operations research group

Research and Teaching Assistant
Computational Integer Programming


The chair of operations research at RWTH Aachen University
(www.or.rwth-aachen.de) invites applications for a full-time PhD (E13)
or postdoc position (E13/E14) as a research and teaching assistant, to
be filled for three years, plus a potential (and desirable) extension
by another three years. Members of our group have backgrounds in
discrete mathematics or theoretical computer science. Research
interests span the full range from the foundations/theory to industry
strength applications. We work on combinatorial and integer
optimization, in particular decomposition methods, graph-based
optimization problems, machine learning, algorithm engineering, and
other methods-driven areas of operations research. Currently, we have
two postdocs, five research assistants, and 20+ student assistants
working at the chair.


You graduated in mathematics or computer science (M.Sc. or comparable)
and you love computational integer (linear) programming and teaching.


You will join the GCG team (gcg.or.rwth-aachen.de) and conduct
research around the mathematics and algorithmics of decompositions. We
teach operations research to a large diversity of students (maths, CS,
engineering, business) and a good share of your time will go into this.


Please apply as soon as possible. We may be able to offer more than
one position and we consider your application until all positions are
filled. Send me a single PDF file of your application material.
Additionally, send (a draft of) your most recent thesis as PDF.
