The University of Freiburg invites applications for the Junior Professorship for Applied Mathematics, specifically Analysis and Numerics of Partial Differential Equations at the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics in the Department of Mathematics to be filled at the earliest possible date.

This is a grade W1-professorship to which performance payments can be offered. This professorship is suitable for highly qualified early career researchers.

The junior professor should be internationally renowned in the field of applied mathematics and should in particular have experience in the field of partial differential equations. The position is intended to complement the existing expertise in the field of analysis and numerics of nonlinear partial differential equations, e.g. to strengthen the ties with differential geometry or with topics from the applied sciences. The junior professorship is to make a contribution to the planned IRTG Freiburg-Pisa on the topic of "Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations". Active participation in course and special lectures, seminars and other teaching activities in the mathematics curriculum as well as in the supervision of bachelor, master and doctoral theses is expected.

Prerequisites for the employment are a university degree, an outstanding dissertation and an excellent publication record. This position is a fixed term of four years. After a successful interim evaluation, it will be extended by two years.
