Subject: Positions in Computational Science
Mime-Version: 1.0
Computational Science is a focus for new research at the University of
Amsterdam (Universiteit van Amsterdam).
The Computational Science Centre Amsterdam (CSA) is a collaboration between
research groups within the University of Amsterdam aimed at the investigation
of complex systems and processes in physics, biology, chemistry, environmental
and earth sciences and antropogenic disciplines (such as engineering, finance
and economy), using simulation and computational techniques.
The development of new methods and techniques to render such processes
computationally tractable, is indispensable to this multi-disciplinary
science.
The common characteristics of systems from the various disciplines will
enhance
our understanding and will ensure an optimal use of the available expertise in
the area of complex systems.
The CSA has several positions open postdoctoral researchers and "AIOs".
(An AIO position is a paid four year appointment as a research trainee with
the explicit aim that a Ph.D. thesis be produced in those four years.)
The following constitutes a very brief listing of the available openings.
For more information, please, consult

Conditions
==========
The information below is indicative and cannot be considered binding.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
All positions are temporary 12 months/year full-time (38 hrs/week)
appointments, unless otherwise indicated.
Details can vary from one position to another.
AIO positions
-------------
The monthly salary will start at dfl 2151 gross, increasing to a maximum
of dfl 3841 gross in the fourth year.
The appointment is for a period of maximally four years and should result
in a Ph.D. A training and supervision plan will be drawn up, stipulating
the aims and content of the proposed research project and the teaching
obligations involved.
Postdoctoral positions
----------------------
The monthly salary depends on experience and will lie between dfl 4711
and dfl 7250. The appointment normally is for a period of two years.
Applying
========
Those who are interested are invited to send their written application,
including an extensive curriculum vitae and the names and adresses of at
least two references, before May 19, to:
Computational Science Centre Amsterdam
Kruislaan 403
1098 SJ Amsterdam
the Netherlands
or
Email: csa@beta.uva.nl.
Clearly mark the CSA number on the envelope (or in the case of email in
the subject).
