[DMANET] Two PhD positions in Combinatorics in the Netherlands

Carla Groenland (TU Delft) and Ross Kang (University of Amsterdam) are looking to hire two PhD students in combinatorics in the Netherlands. - The first position is based in Delft: https://careers.tudelft.nl/job/Delft-PhD-Position-Combinatorics-2628-CD/1373209657/ - The second position is based in Amsterdam: https://werkenbij.uva.nl/en/vacancies/phd-in-probabilistic-and-extremal-combinatorics-netherlands-15505 Application deadline: October 9, 2026 (for the first) and October 14, 2026 (for the second) Starting date: January-October 2027 (preferred) In the Netherlands, PhD students have generous terms of employment including benefits. The position typically includes a teaching load of about 15 percent. The positions are for 4 years (1 fte). We strongly value communication and collaboration skills. Strict requirements are a master's degree by the start of the position and fluency in English. The master's degree need not be in mathematics, but mathematical maturity is required. If you are interested in both positions, then we allow nearly-identical application materials to be submitted for both positions, but in this case the material does need to be provided via both links.
