About:
The School of Computer Science is offering an academic Research Fellowship associated with the EPSRC-funded Centre for Interdisciplinary Computational and Dynamical Analysis (CICADA), a newly formed centre at the University of Manchester at the boundaries between mathematics, computer science and control engineering. This centre has been funded for four years to build a centre of excellence and a national resource to explore new mathematical and computational methods for analysing hybrid systems, asynchronous systems and developing adaptive control methods for these systems.
The Fellow will be expected to carry out a significant body of research and show considerable potential in carrying out independent research. The ideal candidate will be willing to work and lead research in a field relevant to the research of CICADA.
The successful applicant will have a PhD in computer science or a related discipline with a strong background in formal aspects of computer science and will possess an excellent research track record or demonstrate exceptional promise. Experience of collaborative research would be an advantage.
The appointment will be for five years, with the opportunity to continue to a permanent academic position subject to performance during the fellowship period. The post is available immediately. Further particulars and application forms can be found at URL.
