Four PhD Positions in Interdisciplinary Mathematics, Sweden

/ February 24, 2011 Leave a Comment

The PhD students will work with an interdisciplinary mathematics research project, supervised by at least two PhD advisors working in different research disciplines. Ideally, at least one of these disciplines should be in the mathematical sciences, which here includes mathematical statistics, computational science and control systems. The second research discipline should have a connection to complex and dynamical systems, such as those found in physics, chemistry, biology, economics, finance etc.

PhD students will be expected to engage actively in the activities of the centre and the graduate school, i.e. seminars, scientific consultation and so on. They will be required to take at least 30hp (6 months full time study) PhD level mathematics and modelling courses offered by the mathematics and scientific computing departments.

Eligibility: The candidates are expected to have an interest in applied mathematics and/or using models in an interdisciplinary context. A PhD student position requires a Master of Science in a field that is relevant for conducting research in applied mathematics, e.g. mathematics, engineering physics or scientific computing. Candidates with a background in another area of science, e.g. chemistry or biology, with a strong competence and interest in mathematical modeling are also encouraged to apply.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 1 April 2011

Undergraduate Professional Scholarship Scheme 2011-12, Nepal: Engineering , Pharmacy , Agriculture, Dairy Technology and Veterinary Science & Animal Husbandry

/ February 24, 2011 Leave a Comment

Embassy of India, Kathmandu invites applications on prescribed data-sheet from Nepalese nationals desirous of seeking admission to undergraduate courses in Medicine (MBBS under Self financing Scheme), Engineering (BE), Pharmacy (B.Pharma), Agriculture (B.Sc.Ag), Dairy Technology (B.Sc) and Veterinary Science & Animal Husbandry (B.V.Sc. & AH) for the academic year 2011-12. A qualifying examination to select candidates for these courses will be held in Kathmandu and Birgunj on May 07, 2011 under the aegis of the Embassy. Nepalese Army medical candidates are also required to apply for this test through proper channel (i.e through NA Headquarters).

Eligibility Criteria: A candidate must have secured a minimum of 60% marks in aggregate and 50% marks in English in 10+2 or equivalent examination (Class XI marks not to be included) in addition to the eligibility specified against each of the below mentioned courses:

i)MBBS/B.Sc (Ag)/ BVSc & AH and B. Pharmacy: At least 60% each or more in Physics(P), Chemistry(C) and Biology(B) in 10+2 or equivalent examination for MBBS, B.Sc.(Ag) and BVSc & AH. For B. Pharmacy the candidate should have studied Mathematics at 10+2 level (Class XI marks not to be included).

ii)BE and B.Sc (Dairy Technology): At least 60% each or more in Physics (P), Chemistry(C) and Mathematics (M) in 10+2 or equivalent examination (Class XI marks not to be included).

iii) Candidates appearing in Plus 2 Examination during the year 2011 may also apply in anticipation of their results. Their selection will, however, depend on fulfilling the above criteria of eligibility. Results of the qualifying examination should be made available to the Embassy latest by June 30, 2011 or one week after publication of Class XII results, whichever is earlier, failing which the candidature is likely to be cancelled.

The fellowships are open to new doctoral students who have been accepted to the Ph.D. program in CSE for Fall 2011. Each fellowship provides a stipend of $23,000; an additional $7,000 is provided for covering tuition fees, health insurance, and other fees. Each fellowship is for up to three years of support, provided that academic progress is maintained. Specific details about fellowship requirements, obligations, and application process are provided below.
The department currently has 35 PhD students in the program and expects to increase the size to 50 over the next years. Students who wish to enter the Ph.D. program must possess a Bachelors (BS) or Master of Science (MS) degree in either computer science or computer engineering. The department will consider applications from students lacking this background if they show exceptional promise. Specific
admission and program requirements can be found at the following website: The Department will reimburse the application fees for admission for applicants with a GPA greater than 3.5 and a GRE Verbal + Quantitative score greater than 1,250 (with a GRE Quantitative score greater than 750).
