About this position

The Essen Seminar for Algebraic Geometry and Arithmetic at the University of Duisburg-Essen invites applications for up to four PhD positions supported by Research Training Group 2553, “Symmetries and classifying spaces: analytic, arithmetic and derived”, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).

The positions are based in the Department of Mathematics in Essen, within one of the largest mathematics clusters in this area in Germany. The research environment brings together ten research groups spanning algebraic geometry, complex geometry, arithmetic geometry, algebraic number theory, global analysis, and algebraic topology. The group hosts a substantial community of PhD students, postdocs, and visitors, together with weekly research seminars, summer schools, and specialized courses at an advanced master’s/early PhD level.

As a member of the RTG, each doctoral researcher will be supervised by a principal advisor and a second advisor with related research interests. The specific thesis topic is chosen soon after arrival in Essen in discussion with the student, allowing the project to develop within the broader themes of the training group. The programme also includes regular research seminars and weekly events that support collaboration and scientific exchange.

The post is embedded in a family-friendly environment, and the university offers support related to child care for PhD students and postdocs. The group also emphasizes an inclusive research culture and actively encourages female students to apply.

In addition to local research activity, the RTG supports travel to workshops and schools and anticipates that each PhD student will complete a longer research stay at another university, possibly abroad.

Funding details

Up to 4 fully funded PhD positions for 3 years at 75% of an E13 TV-L salary level; no teaching duties; travel funding for visits to workshops/schools and a longer research stay may be available.

What's required

Applicants must have completed a master’s degree in mathematics with very good success, or complete it by the starting date of the position. They should have very good knowledge in at least one of the research areas of the Research Training Group, be motivated to pursue a PhD in one of these areas and contribute to the RTG through seminars, talks, and activities, and be fluent in English.

How to apply
