The IBS Discrete Mathematics Group (DIMAG) in Daejeon, Korea invites
applications for four research fellowship positions (senior researcher
positions).
DIMAG is a research group that was established on December 1, 2018 at
the Institute for Basic Science (IBS), led by its Chief Investigator
(CI) Sang-il Oum. DIMAG is located at the headquarters of IBS in
Daejeon, South Korea, a city of 1.5 million people. Currently, DIMAG
consists of researchers from various countries and the work is done in
English. DIMAG is co-located with the IBS Extremal Combinatorics and
Probability Group (ECOPRO).

Successful candidates for the research fellowship positions will be
new or recent PhDs with outstanding research potential in all fields
of Discrete Mathematics with emphasis on Structural Graph Theory,
Extremal Graph Theory, Combinatorial Optimization, Matroid Theory, and
Algorithms.
This appointment is for about two years, and the starting salary is no
less than KRW 63,000,000. The appointment is one-time renewable up to
5 years in total, contingent upon the outstanding performance of the
researcher. The expected appointment date is September 1, 2026, and it
can be adjusted to earlier or later, but no later than December 1,
2026. This is purely a research position and will have no teaching
duties. However, if desired, successful candidates may have the
opportunity to teach at KAIST.
A complete application packet should include:
1. AMS standard cover sheet (preferred) or cover letter (PDF format)
2. Curriculum vitae including a list of publications and preprints (PDF format)
3. Research statement (PDF format)
4. Consent to Collection and Use of Personal Information (form
available on the application page)
5. 3 recommendation letters
For full consideration, applicants should upload items 1, 2, 3, and 4
on the application website (https://dimag.ibs.re.kr/apply) and arrange
their recommendation letters to be submitted directly by the letter
writers through the link sent via email during the online application

Recommendation letters submitted by an applicant will not be
considered. DIMAG encourages applications from individuals of diverse
backgrounds.
