The Department of Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics, Umea Univesity offers a postdoctoral mathematical modelling and transport analysis scholarship. The scholarship is full-time for two years, with access on 1 September 2025 or by agreement.
This scholarship is part of a research initiative to develop an activity-based transport model for the Umeå region. The model aims to analyze travel patterns, optimise transport flows, and provide data-driven decision support for sustainable mobility. The project is conducted in collaboration between Umeå University and KTH Royal Institute of Technology and involves cooperation with municipal and regional stakeholders.
This postdoctoral scholarship is financed and administrated by the Kempe Foundations (project number JCSMK24-511). The stipend is tax-free and will be 750 000 SEK for two years, meaning 375 000 SEK per year.
Eligibility
The postdoctoral fellow is required to have completed a doctoral degree or a foreign degree deemed equivalent to a doctoral degree.
The doctoral degree should be within applied mathematics, computer science, mathematical statistics, transport science, or similar subject areas. Documented knowledge and experience in mathematical modelling and statistics, as well as strong programming skills (e.g., C#, Python, or Matlab) with application in data analysis and simulation are required.
