We are looking for a PhD student who is or wishes to specialize in computational and applied discrete optimization. The position will be located in the Discrete Optimization group in the Department of Mathematics and Natural Sciences at the University of Kassel. The group's research focus is on combinatorial optimization, integer programming, network optimization, and scheduling and their application in practice. The tasks involve research service and independent scientific research leading towards a PhD degree in one of the groups research areas as well as teaching classroom exercises (also in German).

Candidates must hold a diploma/master's degree in mathematics or computer science and have solid background in discrete optimization or theoretical computer science and algorithmics. Good programming skills (e.g. C++, python or an equivalent programming language) and good command of German and English are required. Experience in teaching and in computational optimization are advantageous.

Applications should be submitted by August 28, 2023 via
