Ph.D. Fellowships
Outstanding students with a BS or MS are invited to apply for a Ph.D. fellowship within the Numerical Mathematics Group.
Please contact me by e-mail as you submit your application
through the KAUST admissions website.
You should include a sample publication or other demonstration of your research and writing.
Potential thesis topics include all areas of research mentioned on our Research page.
A degree in mathematics (applied or pure), physics, engineering, or a related field is required, as are
excellent written and verbal English communication skills.
Applicants possessing a Master’s degree will begin the Ph.D. program immediately, while applicants with a Bachelor’s degree
only will be expected to complete KAUST Master’s degree requirements first. KAUST students receive a competitive stipend,
as well as benefits including housing and insurance. Students in our group are provided with generous professional travel funding
for conferences and collaborative work.
Students in our group interact closely with collaborators at international partner institutions and present results of their work at
major international conferences. No teaching duties are required of KAUST Ph.D. students, although teaching opportunities
may be provided if desired.
Visiting student research internships
Outstanding students currently enrolled in a Bachelor's or Master's program are invited to apply for a visiting student position within the Numerical Mathematics Group. Visiting student positions enable the student to undertake a focused research project during a period of 3-6 months, at KAUST. The goal is to make a significant research advance, often leading to publication in an international journal. You can see current projects within my group by searching at the bottom of this page, where you can also apply.
