About us Located in the prosperous capital of Bavaria and home to over 39000 students, the Technical University of Munich (TUM) is one of the world’s top universities. It is committed to excellence in research and teaching, interdisciplinary education, and the active promotion of promising young scientists. TUM benefits from the healthy mix of companies and startups of all sizes headquartered in the region and is tightly connected to regional research hospitals. The university also forges strong links with companies and scientific institutions across the world. We are looking for motivated researchers to join the HDSC/MDSI Tandem Project “Data science at scale: Training neural models with mixed precision solvers.” This is a joint project involving , , and . Remuneration is 100% TVL E13 according to the German public sector rates. You have the opportunity to pursue a doctoral degree (Dr. rer. nat., i.e. the “German PhD”). The primary place of work will be at the TUM Campus Garching.
