Objective

The Eindhoven Centre for Computational Engineering (ECCE) of the Eindhoven University of Technology invites graduate students from member states or associated states of the European Union to participate in a Marie Curie training programme on Mathematics And Scientific computing for Technology and Research (MASTER). In ECCE experts in applied analysis, scientific computing and mathematical engineering are co-operating in research and education. During a six-month stay the trainee will have the opportunity to do research on one or more parts of the chain: modeling of problems from engineering, their mathematical analysis, numerical simulation and design. Besides, there will be possibilities to follow advanced courses by internationally renowned teachers. Industry needs well-trained mathematicians, who can understand and translate the problems from engineering into mathematically relevant terms, assess their complexity and know to find ways to tackle the problems. This requires a solid mathematical knowledge, an ability to understand the physics and to communicate with the engineering community. There is also a need for engineers trained in using mathematical tools and thus the tailor-made training programme will also be open to mathematically interested engineers. Fellowships are available in the following areas : mathematics of materials, combustion, porous mediaeletrical circuits, dynamics and control. The fellows will be embedded in a multidisciplinary environment, with daily contact to mathematicians, engineers and people from industry. The Eindhoven University of Technology offers excellent housing facilities for temporary guests. Ph D students who are interested to learn more about the specific subjects may consult the web (www.ecce.tue.nl/) for further details of possible Subjects. Applications should include a CV, summary of scientific work to date and two letters of recommendation. Women are explicitly encouraged to apply.
