Post-doctoral Programme

CAMGSD has been offering postdoctoral positions since 1998 and has also been host to many postdocs from other programmes. Calls for applications are published in several sites, including Euraxess and the European Mathematical Society. About 200 applications are submitted and evaluated every year.

Call
CAMGSD Postdoctoral Positions 2013/2014

The Center for Mathematical Analysis, Geometry, and Dynamical Systems of Instituto Superior Técnico, Lisbon, Portugal, invites applications for postdoctoral positions for research in mathematics, subject to budgetary approval (PEST-OE/EEI/LA0009/2011, financed by national funds through FCT/MEC (PIDDAC)). Positions are for one year, with the possibility of extension for a second year upon mutual agreement. Selected candidates will be able to take up their position between Setember 1, 2013, and January 1, 2014.

Applicants should have a Ph.D. in mathematics (completed before starting the CAMGSD position), or in a related area relevant to the scientific interests of the faculty of the Center, preferably obtained after December 31, 2010. They must show very strong research promise in one of the areas in which the faculty of the Center is currently active. There are no teaching duties associated with these positions.

To apply use the online application submission system at

https://camgsd.ist.utl.pt/candidaturas

before 5 pm, Lisbon time, on November 26, 2012.

 

CAMGSD has adhered to an agreement to coordinate its earliest deadline for responding to postdoctoral job offers establishing that, in this Call, it would be no sooner than February 4, 2013.
