[DMANET] Fully funded Ph.D./Postdoc Position in Cryptography at University of Trier, Germany

The Chair for Information Security and Cryptography at University of
Trier, Germany, headed by Prof. Ralf Kuesters, offers a full-time
PhD/Postdoc position.

The position involves both research and teaching in the area of
cryptography/information security. The successful candidate is
expected to contribute to research in cryptographic protocols and/or
electronic voting.

The position is available immediately and is fully funded, with an
internationally competitive salary.

Contracts are initially offered for two years. An extension to a total
duration of up to six years is possible.

He or she is given the possibility to carry out a Ph.D. or, for
Postdocs, a Habilitation.

The successful candidate should have a Master's degree or a Ph.D. (or
should be very close to completion thereof) in Computer Science,
Mathematics, Information Security, or a related field, with strong
analytical and mathematical skills. Knowledge in cryptography is an
asset. Since teaching is mostly done in German, sufficient knowledge
of German is required.

The deadline for applications is October 5th, 2014. However, late
applications will be considered until the position is filled.
