(apologies for multiple copies -- please forward to all interested parties) New PhD Positions 2007 Division of Computing Science, Chalmers University of Technology http://chalmersnyheter.chalmers.se/chalmers03/english/eng_vacanciesarticle.j... The Division has about 80 researchers, half being faculty members and half PhD students. Our focus is on algorithms, bioinformatics, distributed systems and computing, functional programming, formal methods, interaction design, language technology, language based security, parallel and high performance computing, programming logic and type theory, but research is not restricted to these topics. For more information, see http://www.chalmers.se/cse/EN/research/research-groups Knowledge of Swedish is not a prerequisite for application. English is our working language for research. Both Swedish and English are used in undergraduate courses. Half of our researchers and PhD students are native Swedes; the rest come from more than 20 different countries. Applicants must have a very good undergraduate degree in Computing Science or in a related subject with a strong Computing Science component. They must also have a strong, documented interest in doing research. You may even apply if you have not yet completed your degree, but expect to do so by 1 September 2007. We particularly encourage applicants with interests in: - applying techniques from functional programming to develop novel methods of hardware design and verification. For more information on this point contact Mary Sheeran (ms(at)cs.chalmers.se); - automated theorem proving, SAT-solving, and functional programming. For more information on this point see http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~koen/folkung/, or contact Koen Claessen (koen(at)chalmers.se); - distributed algorithms for providing coordination services to networked or multiprocessor applications. For more information on this point see the webapages of the group Distributed Computing and Systems http://www.cs.chalmers.se/~dcs/ or contact Marina Papatriantafilou (ptrianta(at)cs.chalmers.se); - program analysis for software engineering. For more information on this point see the webpage of the group Software Methodologies and Systems (http://sms.cs.chalmers.se, "Open Positions") or contact Sibylle Schupp (<lastname>@cs.chalmers.se). The department especially welcomes female applicants. How to apply ------------ The full application should contain 1. A letter of application, listing specific research interests 2. A curriculum vitae 3. Attested copies of degrees and other certificates 4. Copies of relevant work, for example dissertations or articles, that you have authored or co-authored 5. Letters of recommendation from your teachers or employers *** You MUST include or e-mail Letters of Recommendation: we typically get over 100 apps, and it is simply not feasible for us to request individual letters *** The job reference number is: 2007/30. The last date for your full application to arrive is March 9, 2007 Send your application electronically in PDF files or by paper-mail to Registrator, Chalmers University of Technology, Se-412 96 Göteborg, Sweden. Phone: +4631 772 1000, Fax: +4631 772 4922, E-mail: registrator(at)adm.chalmers.se If you need more information regarding PhD studies at the division please contact Philippas Tsigas (tsigas(at)cs.chalmers.se). You will know the result of your application by 30 May 2007. Union representatives: SACO Jan Lindér, TCO Monica Orrbacke, SEKO Ralf Berndtsson
