About this position

The University of Vienna is advertising a University Assistant postdoctoral position in the Faculty of Mathematics for research and teaching in Numerical Methods for Partial Differential Equations. The position is embedded in the research team around Ilaria Perugia and focuses on numerical analysis, scientific computing, finite element methods, and applications to wave propagation and nonlinear reaction-diffusion problems.

The post also asks for research competence shown through international publications, excellent English, and strong motivation for scientific excellence.

Funding: this is a salaried university employment position. The advertised gross salary is EUR 5,014.30 per month on a full-time basis (14 times per year), subject to experience and qualification.

How to apply: submit a motivation letter, scientific CV (including publications, talks, third-party funding, and teaching activities if applicable), PhD certificate, and contact details for two referees.
