Position Overview

Introduction

We are looking for a PhD student to help us develop practical cryptography for the post-quantum era. This (fully funded) PhD studentship focuses on provable security.

Job Description

You will develop the next generation of post-quantum cryptographic schemes that are designed with implementation security in mind from the outset. Your research will combine cryptographic design with formal security analysis, helping to bridge the gap between theoretical security and secure real-world implementations.

You will be supervised by K. Hövelmanns, co-supervised by A. Hülsing.

What you can expect from us:

  • Being part of a multidisciplinary team that works at the intersection of post-quantum cryptography, provable security, and implementation security.
  • Close collaboration with researchers working on side-channel attacks and secure implementations.
  • Weekly supervision meetings to help you stay on track.
  • Ready to Apply?
