******************************************************* * PhD position in Quantitative logics and complexity theory * University of Sheffield, UK * Fully funded for 3.5 years (both UK Home and International rates) * Possible times to start: preferably Autumn 2024 *******************************************************
I am looking for a motivated PhD student to join the Foundations of Computation group (https://www.sheffield.ac.uk/cs/research/groups/foundations-computation) of The University of Sheffield (https://www.sheffield.ac.uk/cs). The topic of the PhD project is quite flexible, but should relate to my current research directions in quantitative logics and complexity theory. Here possible directions are temporal logics, logical foundations of neural networks, and logical foundations of database theory (for more details: https://www.findaphd.com/phds/project/quantitative-logics-and-complexity-the...).
This PhD studentship will fund the full (UK or Overseas) tuition fee and provide a tax-free stipend at the standard UKRI rate (currently £19,237 for 2024/25) for 3.5 years. In addition, both the Department and research group provide funding for attending conferences.
Interested candidates are encouraged to contact me directly by email for further details (j.t.virtema@sheffield.ac mailto:j.t.virtema@sheffield.ac.uk). For more details on the possible topics, the candidate may refer to my recent works at http://www.virtema.fi/.
Best wishes, Jonni
