*Apologies for cross posting*
Dear all,

The Operational Research Group within the School of Electronic 
Engineering and Computer Science, Queen Mary University of London, 
invites applications for a fully-funded PhD studentship:

*Industrial CASE Studentship: investigating applications for 
network** design (deadline 25th May).*

In collaboration with British Telecom (BT), the studentship will 
investigate applications for network design, e.g. atown’s fibre network. 
The goal of the project is to explore software solutions to find optimal 
solutions to a graph problem described in a human readable declarative 
constraintlanguage. Informal enquiries can be made by email to Dr. Jun 
Chen (j.chen at qmul.ac.uk <mailto:j.chen at qmul.ac.uk>) and Dr. John Drake 
(j.drake at qmul.ac.uk <mailto:j.drake at qmul.ac.uk>).

Candidates are normally expected to have a 1st class honors degree or 
Masters in Computer Science, Mathematics, Operational Research or 
related discipline, from a UK University or an equivalent standard from 
an overseas university. The successful candidate must have a strong 
programming background, as well as good analytical and communication 
skills. The student is expected to work as part of a team and 
independently, and to prepare clear reports and research papers. An 
understanding of mathematical optimization techniques, heuristic and 
hyper-heuristic search is highly desirable although not mandatory.

Open to anyone who has been ordinarily resident in the UK for at least 3 
years prior to the start of the studentship (this can include EU 
students who have just completed an undergraduate degree in the UK - 
eligibitility requirements are here: 
https://epsrc.ukri.org/skills/students/help/eligibility/). The start 
date for this studentship is flexible, but must commence by 1st October 
2018 at the latest. This studentship covers student fees as well as a 
tax-free stipend of around £16,500 per annum. It also attracts an 
additional stipend from the industrial partner. Full details are 
available on jobs.ac.uk <http://jobs.ac.uk>:

Regards,
