Symbolic computation is a central topic both in mathematics and computer science. It solves problems dealing with symbolic objects that are representable on a computer.

RISC-Linz, the Research Institute for Symbolic Computation of the Johannes Kepler University in Linz, Austria, is one of the world's leading institutions working in this relatively new area of research.

RISC-Linz invites students to apply for its PhD program in Symbolic Computation. The study program is conducted in English. Grants are available.

Application

Applications should be sent to the RISC PhD coordinator phd-coordinator@risc.uni-linz.ac.at and must be received by September 15, 2008, in order to be considered for the next round of admission.

Details on application requirements as well as the RISC PhD curriculum are available at www.risc.uni-linz.ac.at/education/phd/ .
