The Department of Mathematics at the University in Bergen, Norway, invites aspiring graduates to apply to the open positions as a PhD student. All positions are for a fixed-term period of 3 years, with the possibility to prolong for a 4^thyear when including other compulsory work, e.g., teaching duties or project-related tasks.

The students will be part of the new VISTA Center for Modeling of Coupled Subsurface Dynamics, involving approximately 40 people including faculty, researchers, PhD and master students.

About VISTA CSD

VISTA CSD’s primary objective is to develop fundamental knowledge and educate next generation researchers to understand how subsurface fluid injection and extraction results in deformation, fault reactivation and fracturing.

The center thus targets critical and fundamental research questions through mathematical and numerical modeling and data analysis.

VISTA Progam

VISTA CSD is financed by the program VISTA in the period from 1 January 2021 until 31 December 2025.

VISTA is a basic research program financed by the Equinor and executed in close cooperation with The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters.

ERC CONSOLIDATOR GRANT 2020 Awarded to UiB Reserchers

Awarded to excellent mid-carreer researchers.

On 9 December 2020, the European Research Council (ERC) announced the winners of the ERC Consolidator Grant competition. That year, eight grants went to Norwegian institutions, four to researchers from the University of Bergen.
