The Department of Computing Science at the Chalmers University of
Technology and G\"{o}teborgs University announces free PhD positions.

The Department of Computing Science has about 30 staff members and
about 25 PhD students. The department receives funding from Esprit,
and from the Swedish Government agencies TFR and NUTEK. The major
topics of research are programming logic and type theory, functional
programming and concurrency, but research is also carried out in a
number of other topics.

Most PhD positions are five year scholarships. The PhD student will
spend about 80 percent of his or her time on graduate studies, and
about 20 percent on teaching. Applicants must have an undergraduate
degree in Computer Science with excellent results. The department
tries to increase the number of female employees, and especially
welcomes female applicants. At the moment the scholarships consist of
14000 (17200) SEK per month in the first (last) year.
