Research Fellowship in Theoretical Foundations of Scientific Modelling, Swansea (Wales)

The Welsh Assembly Government and HEFCW have agreed to support the foundation of Welsh Institute for Mathematical Computational Science (WIMCS) with a grant of 35 million phased over four years, starting in October 2006. The Institute is set to boost the research base in mathematical and computational sciences, and to increase income for research in these areas in Wales. WIMCS will also play an important role in fostering collaboration with industry and commerce. For more information, please see the official web pages: http://wimcs.swan.ac.uk.

Sponsored by WIMCS, a Research Fellowship, leading to a Lectureship in Computer Science, is available. The successful candidate will expected to work on the theoretical foundations of scientific modelling and computation, and participate in the activities of the WIMCS cluster on computational modelling. He or she will be a faculty member of the Logic and Computation Group in the Department of Computer Science at Swansea.

Closing date: 1 June 2007. For official details of the post see: http://www.swan.ac.uk/personnel/Vacancies/Academic/PostTitle,15039,en.asp. For informal questions, contact: John V. Tucker (j.v.tucker at swansea.ac.uk).
