Join Our Team at the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore

The School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences (SPMS) at NTU Singapore hosts research and education activities in two divisions: Division of Mathematical Sciences (MAS) and Division of Physics and Applied Physics (PAP). MAS covers diverse topics ranging from pure mathematics to the applications of mathematics in cryptography, computing, business, and finance. PAP covers many areas of fundamental and applied physics, including quantum information, condensed matter physics, biophysics, and photonics. Over the years, SPMS has attracted talented individuals from around the world and Singapore to join as scientific leaders and researchers.

Join the laboratory of Wang Li-Lian at SPMS. We are seeking a Research Fellow in the fields of Scientific Computing for interdisciplinary applications, to contribute to a project focused on developing and analyzing efficient computational methods for complex PDEs arising from emerging applications. The hire is in line with a university wide initiative to advance the application of Computational Science in interdisciplinary research.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop efficient computation methods for PDEs with singular and oscillatory solutions

• Conduct deep mathematical analysis of the proposed methods
