[Job-offers-cs] Postdoc and PhD positions in TCS at Lund University (deadline Jan 31)

[Pekka Orponen]

The Department of Computer Science at Lund University invites 
applications for up to two PhD positions and one postdoc position in 
theoretical computer science with focus on computational complexity and 
algorithms.


The PhD students will be working in the research group of Susanna de 
Rezende. These are four-year full-time employed positions, but PhD 
positions usually (though not necessarily) include 20% teaching, in 
which case they are prolonged for one more year. The starting date is 
negotiable but ideally during the autumn 2024. The positions are fully 
funded, employed positions (including travel money) that come with an 
internationally competitive salary.

There is a growing research group in theory of computing at Lund 
University. We expect to have 8 PhD students by the autumn, in addition 
to three faculty and some MSc students.

Lund University is located in the Öresund area, which is offering one of 
the strongest and most exciting environments in computational complexity 
research in Europe. There is extensive collaboration with the University 
of Copenhagen (UCPH), the IT University of Copenhagen (ITU), and the 
Technical University of Denmark (DTU) on the other side of the Öresund 
Bridge. In particular, we will be collaborating with the MIAO research 
group, which is active at both Lund University and the University of 
Copenhagen. The PhD students can also look forward to interacting with 
the four additional faculty in complexity theory in Copenhagen, together 
with their students and postdocs, as well as with the algorithms group 
at the Basic Algorithms Research Copenhagen (BARC) centre.

The application deadline is Jan 31, 2024 at midnight local time. See 
https://derezende.github.io/openpositions/ for more information and 
instructions on how to apply. Informal enquiries are welcome and can be 
sent to susanna.rezende at cs.lth.se<mailto:susanna.rezende at cs.lth.se>.
