for Cryptologic Research

The USF Center for Cryptographic Research is recruiting 3 postdoctoral fellows and 3 graduate students to work on Applied Algebra. Our program focuses on the following topics:

• Cryptology
• Coding Theory
• Quantum Computing

Candidates whose research intersects multiple topics of interest are particularly encouraged to apply. Successful candidates will be hosted by the USF Department of Mathematics and Statistics. All candidates must be U.S. citizens or U.S. Permanent Residents (i.e. Green Card holders). The additional minimum qualifications are

• Postdoctoral: a PhD in mathematics, computer science, or a related field.
• Graduate students: a bachelor’s degree in mathematics, or evidence of completion of coursework in algebra, analysis and topology.

The start date is negotiable, but needs to be before the start of the Fall 2025 semester.

Our program is supported by an NSF Research Training Group (RTG) grant. More information about our RTG program is available at:
