The Department of Computing Science at the Chalmers University of Technology and G�teborgs University announces free PhD positions. The major research topics at the department are programming logic and type theory, functional programming, cognition technology, and algorithms and discrete optimisation, but research is also carried out in a number of other topics. More information about the research at the department can be found on the WWW on page: http://www.cs.chalmers.se/ComputingScience/Research Most PhD positions are five year scholarships. The PhD student will spend about 80 percent of his or her time on graduate studies, and about 20 percent on teaching. Applicants must have an undergraduate degree in Computer Science with excellent results. The department tries to increase the number of female employees, and especially welcomes female applicants. At the moment the scholarships consist of 14500 (19000) SEK per month in the first (last) year. Usually a foreign PhD student does not teach in his or her first year in Sweden, and as a consequence the scholarship is of a slightly smaller size. More information about the graduate programmes can be found on the WWW on page: http://www.cs.chalmers.se/ComputingScience/Graduate To apply, send us a letter in English, covering 1 data about yourself; 2 a copy of an official paper giving grades from your undergraduate degree(s); 3 a statement about your main interests; 4 some letters of recommendation from people that know you as a student or as an employee; 5 any scientific papers you have written. Send your application to Section for Mathematics and Computer Science Chalmers University of Technology 412 96 G�teborg Sweden Furthermore, send an email containing the data about yourself to johanj@cs.chalmers.se The last date for your application to arrive is March 3, 1997. A decision about to whom we will offer the PhD positions will be taken before June 1, 1997.
