RESEARCH POSITION AT THE UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES / FH KONSTANZ

The Institute of Applied Research at the University of Applied Sciences Konstanz invites applications for a research position in the project 'Parameter Set Estimation'. The project covers the rigorous estimation of the parameters of some models, where data uncertainties are present. Our approach leads to structured systems of linear equations with uncertain coefficients. Such systems pose interesting research problems concerning their solution sets. This project is a joint project with the Institut de Recherche en Informatique (IRIN) at the Universite de Nantes in France and funded by the German Ministry of Education and Research and the French-German program PROCOPE.

We are looking for a candidate having at least an M. Sc. degree and a background in interval computations. Also some knowledge in constrained programming would be beneficial. Proficiency with programming in C/C++ and a good command of the English or German language are highly desirable. The position offers the opportunity to work towards a doctoral degree. The appointment will be for about 14 months. The salary will be commensurate (BAT IIa, the exact amount is depending on age and personal status).

Lake Constance and the nearby Alps offer excellent conditions for all kinds of water and mountaineering sports.

To apply, please send your CV, including publications via email as soon as possible, preferably in PS or PDF format, to garloff@fh-konstanz.de. Review of applications begins immediately and will continue until the position is filled.
