Chapman University in Orange, California, USA, is hiring doctoral students and postdoctoral fellows through two different programs (see below). Applicants for either program will be selecting their desired mentors, and I am seeking a doctoral student and/or postdoctoral fellow. You're invited to consider applying if you are interested to work with me on at least one of the following topics, or a related one: * logical and mathematical methods in computer science (in particular: category theory, type theory, or programming language theory) * logical, categorical, or synthetic aspects of homotopy theory, topology, and geometry * proof assistants and formalization of mathematics * AI and machine learning for automated reasoning and theorem proving * verification and formal methods in software engineering If you're interested in applying, please reach out to me via: jweinberger@chapman.edu<mailto:jweinberger@chapman.edu> 1) INFORMATION ON THE DOCTORAL POSITION (MPP PROGRAM) Chapman University's graduate program in Mathematics, Philosophy, and Physics (MPP) is looking for graduate students. The degree awarded upon completion of this research-focused graduate program is Doctor of Science (DSc), equivalent to a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD). All areas of math, philosophy, and physics are welcome, but an interdiscplinary perspective is encouraged. A Master's degree is required but you are invited to apply if you are currently a Master's student.
