The Department of Marine Technology announces 2 vacant PhD fellowships within the research program "Investigating hydrodynamic aspects and control strategies for ship-to-ship (STS) operations". More information about 2 PhD Positions in Nautical Science (doc)
PhD fellowships are research training positions, offering promising students an opportunity of academic development. The Department conducts research within the areas of algebra, geometry/topology, mathematical analysis, numerical analysis and statistics. A sizable part of the research is done in cooperation with other disciplines, both within NTNU and with research facilities in industry and other external institutions.

Thematically, the scholarship is related to childhood as a social, historical and cultural phenomenon, and children’s well being and everyday lives in different cultural contexts. Projects focusing on global change, inter-generational relations and children as social participants (within, for example, the family, educational institutions, local community) in different local contexts (urban/rural), are welcome.

Department of Mathematical Sciences has available up to three PhD Research Fellowship Positions for a three year period each. NTNU may offer a six to twelve months extension as a teaching assistant. The candidates will study spatial statistical models for inversion of well log observation, seismic data and production history. Mathematical modelling and parameter estimation in complex models will be major subjects of study.
