[Opt-net] University Professor (W3) for Mathematical Optimization at Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg

[Volker Kaibel]

The Faculty of Mathematics at Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg calls for 
applications for the following position:

     University Professor (chair, W3) for Mathematical Optimization
        (Position formerly held by Prof. Dr. Robert Weismantel) 

The successful candidate will have a record of excellent contributions in Mathematics 
within the area of Optimization. We expect the candidate to further strengthen the 
faculty's focal point in Optimization. It would be desirable that the candidate's
research work has connections (or strong potential for the development of such
connections) to areas like process engineering, systems biology, or biomedicine.
Institutes like the Research Center for Dynamical Systems on Biomedicine and
Process Engineering and the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical 
Systems provide excellent possibilities for interdisciplinary cooperations.

The candidate is expected to teach classes of students in Mathematics as well as 
to contribute to the faculty's teaching service for other faculties. Most of the
teaching will be done (at least after a while) in German language. The candidate
needs to hold the degree of Habilitation or to have an equivalent scientific record.

Applications including curriculum vitae, list of publications, record of teaching
experience and copies of certificates of academic degrees shall be directed to:

Otto-von-Guericke-Universitaet Magdeburg
Dekan der Fakultaet fuer Mathematik 
Herrn Prof. Dr. W. Willems
Postfach 4120 
39016 Magdeburg

For more information, including the official call for applications, please contact
