Training

Ph.D. Fellowships

Applications are invited for doctoral fellowships at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), New York University (NYU), and University of Minnesota (U of M), partly funded by the NSF PIRE award ”Science at the Triple Point Between Mathematics, Mechanics and Materials Science”. Candidates should select one of these three institutions and apply directly through these institutions. Accepted Ph.D. students will be expected to complete the requirements of the program they enroll in and as well as the additional PIRE opportunity of one semester spent abroad at an international partner institution. In addition, a few fellowships will be available for internships at Bosch Corporate Research in Germany. Applicants should indicate their interest in the PIRE program in the application, requesting that the application be considered for PIRE funding. Priority will be given to U.S. citizens and permanent residents.

Postdoctoral Positions

Applications are invited for postdoctoral positions at California Institute of Technology (Caltech), CMU, NYU, and U of M, partly funded by the NSF PIRE award ”Science at the Triple Point Between Mathematics, Mechanics and Materials Science”. Candidates should select one of these institutions and apply directly to www.mathjobs.org through the above links. Full appointments are for two/three years with two semesters spent at one or more of our international partner sites. Priority will be given to U.S. citizens and permanent residents.

Summer Undergraduate Applied Mathematics Institute

Carnegie Mellon University offers a summer program for twelve undergraduates considering research careers in mathematical sciences.
