PhD Studentship Numerical Modelling of Industrial Processes exhibiting Layer
Phenomena
Department of Mathematics
Applications are invited for a PhD studentship to work on a mathematical
modelling project that also involves significant amounts of numerical
computation. The underlying research investigates certain industrial
processes whose solutions exhibit layers. In collaboration with Professors
Martin Stynes and Grigory Shishkin the project will develop mathematical
models whose numerical solutions require novel state-of-the-art techniques.
The successful applicant will have - or expects to be awarded shortly - a
good undergraduate degree (or Masters) in applied mathematics or a related
numerate discipline. S/he will have a strong interest in modelling and in
the numerical solution of differential equations.
The project is funded by the Mathematics Applications Consortium for Science
and Industry (MACSI) which is supported by the Science Foundation Ireland
Mathematics Initiative. The studentship includes an annual salary of
€18,000, plus Ph.D. fees at UCC/NUIC, and there is additional generous
support for travel.
The studentship will commence in Autumn 2007 and is tenable initially for 18
months, with an additional 18 months dependent upon a successful progress
review.
Applications by email to Professor Martin Stynes , who can
also be contacted via email or phone (+353-21-4902539) for informal
enquiries and further information.
Applications must include:
- CV, including clear statements regarding the quality of your
examination grades and your competence in spoken and written English;
- a covering letter describing your interest in this position;
- the names of 3 academic referees, together with the positions they
hold and their email and postal addresses.
*Closing date: Friday, 6 July 2007*
