PhD and postdoc positions in symplectic geometry, at Bochum, Cologne and Münster

A new “Collaborative Research Centre” has been announced focusing on Symplectic Structures in Geometry, Algebra and Dynamics at the Universities of Bochum, Cologne and Münster. This will fund 8 postdoctoral and 17 Ph.D positions. More details on the positions and the goals of the research project can be found here. Note that the deadline for applications is the 6th January 2017.

Getting here

The department of mathematics is in building NO, on the Campus de la Plaine, of the Université libre de Bruxelles. The geometry group is on the 7th floor. This map shows NO, as well as the metro station Delta and entrance 2, which is right by the stop for the number 71 and 72 buses. The number 95 also stops a short walk from the department. See the STIB website for more information on public transport in Brussels.
