Junior Research Group Leader (f/m/d) in Numerical Analysis of Partial Differential Equations

The Collaborative Research Center “Wave phenomena – analysis and numerics” (CRC 1173) is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG). Its goal is to analytically understand, numerically simulate, and eventually manipulate wave propagation under realistic scenarios by intertwining analysis and numerics. See www.waves.kit.edu for a list of participating scientists, topics, and project descriptions.

With this position the CRC promotes outstanding young scientists on their path towards a scientific career. As a successful candidate, you will benefit from an excellent research environment in which you can independently develop your own research project. The position is endowed with a Ph.D. position and a budget for travel and guests. 

Persönliche Qualifikation

• You must have a Ph.D. in mathematics, some international research experience, and you are in an early stage of your scientific career (ideally between two and about four years after obtaining your doctorate degree).
• You have demonstrated your scientific independence by excellent publications in Numerical Analysis of Partial Differential Equations, including inverse problems.
