Dear colleague,****
****
The Finance Reserach Group at the Department of Economics and Business at
Aarhus University is participating in a newly initiated 4-year EU funded
project on âHigh Performance Computing for Financeâ. Other main partners in
the network/project are TUT (Finland), Maastricht University (NL),
University of Manchester (UK), Scottish Widows Investment Partnership (UK),
Techila (FI), and Cambridge Systems Ass. (UK). The training network will
recruit 12 Early Stage Researchers (Phd students) and 2 Experienced
Researchers (post.doc.). 3 of the PhD students will be hosted with us in
Aarhus, and these positions are now announced, please see the links below..
The three projects are related to 1) the integration of financial and
insurance models for risk management, 2) stochastic volatiltity modeling,
and 3) multivariate financial modeling. Further detail is given in the
announcements.****

The PhD student positions hosted by AU cannot be filled with our own
graduates, ie. we must recruit from abroad.****
****
We would therefore be extremely grateful if you would refer potential
applicants/suitable candidates that you may know, eg. among your
soon-to-graduate students, to the announcements. Please feel free to
forward to them. There is an application deadline of July 27th and we
hope to fill the positions soon after Summer, but we can wait for the right
candidate to arrive in Aarhus until late 2012.****
