last year students can apply
you can show excellent study results
you have knowledge of and experience with numerical methods for (time-dependent, partial) differential equations and share an interest in mathematical price models for modern financial products such as options.
We offer:
a scholarship for a period of four years
starting date is in 2008
position is open also to non-EU citizens.
