International Scholarships

The Distributed and Embedded Systems and Information Systems research groups of the University of Twente collaborate with a number of industrial partners in the VISPER project. In this project, we investigate modelling and developing a virtual security perimeter across the digital, physical, and organisational domains. We will investigate how re-perimeterisation affects the digital domain (where data moves from organisation to organisation through networks), the social domain (where one individual may play a variety of roles in cooperating organisations) and the physical domain (where appliances such as mobile phones and laptops move around). We are currently looking for one PostDoc (three years) who will investigate the linkage between the policies and the mechanisms across the three domains (vacancy number 06/127).

What we look for and what we offer:

You have completed a PhD or are about to complete one, in an area that is relevant to our research, e.g. computer science, software engineering, or operations research. You like working in a team and have intellectual curiosity and knowledge of one or more of the following topics: information systems, distributed systems, security, decision support techniques. Your main responsibility will be to carry out research, but you will be given the opportunity to acquire some teaching experience.

We offer both our PostDoc researchers the opportunity to broaden their knowledge by joining international exchange programs, by participating in national and international conferences and workshops, and by visiting other research institutes and universities worldwide.

The monthly salary of a PostDoc starts at EURO 2708 per year and is negotiable.
