AIMS Post Graduate and Post Doctoral Researchers

Postgraduate (MSc and PhD) research students and postdoctoral fellows are an integral part of the research ecosystem at AIMS. They work as part of a research team to contribute to the research environment while growing professionally.

Introduction

Postgraduate (MSc and PhD) research students and postdoctoral fellows are an integral part of the research ecosystem at AIMS. They are either self-funded or funded through various instruments/research programs that are implemented at AIMS Research Centres. They work as part of a research team to contribute to the research environment while growing professionally.

Through a grant from the International Development Research Centre, Ottawa, Canada, www.idrc.ca, and financial support from the Government of Canada provided through Global Affairs Canada (GAC), www.international.gc.ca, under the Mathematical Sciences for Climate Change Resilience Program, the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences – Research (AIMS Research) is pleased to invite prospective postdoctoral fellows (PhD holders) and postgraduate (PhD and MSc) students to apply for one of 15 postdoctoral fellowships, eight PhD and 16 Masters by Research bursaries in the climate change sciences and their related disciplines.

Funds will be provided for projects on any topic that is relevant to the understanding, modeling, and/or response to climate change. Projects must have a substantial quantitative content. The ideal project will combine theory with data, and will have one or more practitioners as collaborators. However, exclusively theoretical projects may also qualify for funding.

Applicants are welcomed to apply into the AIMS Masters by Research Program, the AIMS Doctoral Training Program or the AIMS Postdoctoral Research Fellows Program based on their academic status.

Additional opportunities may be available through AIMS Research Centres in: AIMS-CameroonAIMS-GhanaAIMS-SenegalAIMS-South AfricaAIMS-TanzaniaAIMS-RwandaQuantum Leap Africa.
