The PhD School of the University of Turin, in the context of the PhD course in "Modeling and Data Science", offers:

1 PhD position on the project

"Numerical approximations of non-local parabolic equations based on stochastic and finite elements methods and applications",

starting on Nov 1, 2021.

The project is a joint research initiative of the Stochastic group in the Dept. of Mathematics at the University of Turin (Italy) and the Numerical Analysis group in the "Laboratoire de Mathématique et de leurs applications" at the University of Pau (France). The advertised position will be based in both universities and will offer ample freedom to suitably organize the stay in the two cities. The possibility of double PhD Degree could be considered.

The gross salary is 1458/month during the stay in Turin and could be increased of about 50% during the period in Pau.

Embedded in a truly international environment, the student will get excellent research training in a structured programme focussing on challenges at the mathematical foundations of the stochastic and numerical approach to PDEs as well as on challenges arising from its various applications, e.g., in physics, biology, finance or data science. The combined expertise from the Turin and Pau groups will provide a significant breadth in depth and fertile ground for our student's ambitious research ideas.

Successful candidates will have an MSc degree (or equivalent) in Mathematics (or a closely related field such as Applied Mathematics, Computational Science, Physics or Statistics), strong knowledge on stochastic processes or numerical methods, and feel eager to engage in the exchange of ideas with the teams in both Turin and Pau.
