A Postdoctoral Research Associate Position
A Postdoctoral Research Associate position is available to work with Dr Behnam Hashemi on the EPSRC-funded New Investigator Award Project, Rigorous Numerics for Transcendental Functions of Matrices.
The project aims to develop verified algorithms for computing matrix functions with applications to monitoring the quality of results produced by standard floating-point algorithms and to computer-assisted mathematical proofs in dynamical systems and ordinary and partial differential equations. The role will involve developing rigorous a posteriori forward error bounds for matrix functions using interval analysis, as well as contributing to open-source software development in MATLAB and Python.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
