Eight Positions in St.Petersburg

The St.Petersburg State University opens eight full-time positions of 
various level (see below) for advanced teaching within the new 
Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science program. The Scientific 
Council of this program is headed by Stanislav Smirnov.

This time positions are available for teaching in English, and the 
knowledge of Russian is optional.

1. Professor, salary level 217 412 RUB per month (2 Position)

(We encourage to apply to _all_ appropriate positions, because the 
formal applications are processed separately.)

The undergraduate program is very selective, admission is limited to 55 
top students per year, the first four enrollments (2015, 2016, 2017, 
2018) are first rate. In particular, more winners of the all-Russian 
mathematical Olympiad joined our program than any other similar program 
in Russia.

In addition, a graduate (master's) program is starting in 2019, open 
both to Russian and foreign students. Graduate courses are taught in 
English.

The program is accomplished in close cooperation with Chebyshev 
Laboratory (http://chebyshev.spbu.ru/en/)

Applicants are expected to have a strong research record and to be able 
to teach in English. The winners are expected to carry out research of 
high professional standard, to teach, as well as to perform customary 
administrative duties such as advising students, participating in 
committees, organizing admissions, etc. The teaching load is up to 6 
academic hours (= 4.5 astronimic hours) per week for full professors, 
and 8 academic hours (= 6 astronomic hours) for associate and assistant 
professors.

Initial contract is normally signed for a period of up to five years, 
and can be renewed by further 5 year terms.

The details of the formal application procedure can be found at

In addition to the formal application sent according to the above 
document, all applicants are invited to send a copy of their CV to Maria 
Rossomakhina (secretariat at chebyshev.spb.ru) mentioning any detail that

acknowledged by Russian Federation as a D.Sc. degree;
- at least five refereed publications indexed simultaneously in

As mentioned above, responsibilities include lectures and seminars, 
advising BSc, MSc and PhD students. Typical basic subjects that 
successful applicants are expected to teach range over all mathematics 
and theoretical computer science.

Applications and questions on formalities should be sent to personnel 
officer Olga Ivanova. Less formal questions should be sent to Maria 
Rossomakhina <secretariat at chebyshev.spb.ru> who can also provide 
templates for the formal documents to be submitted to the personnel
