Doctoral Candidate in Applied Mathematics (m/f/d)
Aufgaben:
The Chair of Applied Mathematics within the Mathematical Institute for Machine Learning and Data Science (MIDS) at KU Eichstätt-Ingolstadt invites applications for a part-time position (75 %) for Doctoral Candidate in Applied Mathematics (m/f/d) to be filled at the earliest possible starting date. The place of work will be Ingolstadt. The successful candidate will be employed in a private-law employment relationship, in which case remuneration will be according to pay grade E 13 TV-L provided that the requirements are met. The position is part of the subproject M3 »Toward Consistent Subgrid Momentum Closures« of the Collaborative Research Center TRR 181 »Energy Transfers in Atmosphere and Ocean«. The successful candidate shall contribute to the analysis of structural properties of so-called backscatter closures for global ocean models via a combination of mathematical proof and numerical experiments in order to justify and enhance these parametrizations. Candidates should have an excellent master degree in applied mathematics or a closely related field with a specialization in at least one of the relevant areas: analysis of PDEs, numerical analysis, fluid dynamics, or approximation theory. Further, a strong interest to work in a multi-disciplinary research environment is expected. German language skills are not required, but candidates are encouraged to develop those during their employment at the KU. The position is funded by the TRR 181 for a duration of up to four years parallel to approved German Research Foundation funding periods. The TRR 181 is a collaborative project between Universität Hamburg, Universität Bremen, KU Eichstätt-Ingolstadt, the Alfred-Wegener-Institut Bremerhaven, the GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, and several other partner institutes. Physical oceanographers, meteorologists, and applied mathematicians are working together in the project to understand the energy transfers between the different dynamical regimes - small-scale turbulence, internal gravity waves, and geostrophically balanced motion - in both atmosphere and ocean, to develop, to test, and to implement new and consistent parameterisations in models, and to develop mathematical and numerical methods featuring consistent energetics. The goal are energetically more consistent climate models for advanced climate predictions. Our offer Successful applicants will become members of the Research Training Group »ENERGY« associated with the TRR 181 and have the opportunity to complete a PhD degree at KU Eichstätt-Ingolstadt Entrainment into a vibrant interdisciplinary collaborative research network Team-oriented and well-equipped work environment in central Ingolstadt Opportunity and support for career development Your application Please send your application with the usual supporting documents by e-mail to Prof. Dr. Marcel Oliver (marcel.oliver@ku.de). Please combine all documents in one PDF file. Applications received by October 6, 2024 will receive full consideration. Your documents should include cover letter, curriculum vitae, copies of transcripts and degree certificates and at least one letter of recommendation. All application documents submitted will be destroyed/deleted after completion of the hiring process in compliance with data protection regulations.

The University is therefore interested in receiving applications with relevant information in this regard. There are no specific denominational requirements for being employed at the KU. The KU is committed to promoting equal opportunity (m/w/d), and aims to ensure that its members are able to balance work and family life. Candidates with severe disabilities (m/w/d) who are equally suitable to other applicants will be prioritized. Katholische Universität Eichstätt-Ingolstadt - Footer
