Willing and enthusiastic colleagues in the disciplines of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics or other related disciplines. Successful candidates will be appointed to the post of Research Associate. Their activities will include participation in research projects in the area of communication networks as well as in the routine semester academic activitities. Research Associates may have to give lectures in their area of expertise or even hold tutorial, give assignments and student projects.

The research group is lead by Prof. Görg. She strongly encourages other women to get involved in this area and take advantage of this job opportunity.

Any Masters degree in disciplines of Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, Physics or related disciplines.

At the Universität Bremen in the International Graduate School for Dynamics in Logistics,

7 PhD grants are offered, starting between December 1st, 2005 and April 1st, 2006. Each grant amounts to up to 1468 Euro/month for a maximum period of three years.

The International Graduate School for Dynamics in Logistics aims to

identify, describe, and model the intrinsic dynamics of present logistic processes and networks. By exploiting new technologies, new dynamic planning and control processes will be researched and developed. The Graduate School is part of an extensive research and education concept on the subject of Dynamics in Logistics, together with, among others, the Collaborative Research Centre ''Autonomous cooperating logistic processes - a paradigm shift and its limitations`` SFB 637.

We are currently looking for young researchers and excellent students with a master degree in mechanical engineering, industrial engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, mathematics, or physics to apply for PhD admission and grants. As an exception, a particularly outstanding master in economics may be considered, too.

As the University of Bremen intends to increase the proportion of female employees in science, women are particularly invited to send their application.

In case of equal personal aptitudes and qualification, disabled persons will be given priority.

See www.logistics-gs.uni-bremen.de for more detailed information on the International Graduate School and its application process. Applications should be sent before October 31, 2005 to:
