Starting from September 2008, the Institute of Statistics of the Université catholique
de Louvain, Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium, is offering a series of full time teaching and
research assistant positions for preparing a PhD in statistics.
Description of the positions
Starting as of now, and until the application deadline (June 1, 2008), the Institute of
Statistics (IS) is filling 4 teaching assistant and 4 research assistant positions.
As a teaching assistant (up to 6 years’ contract with average monthly salary of about
2600 Euros including social security) the doctoral student, besides working on his/her
thesis, is teaching tutorials in a variety of service and master courses of the IS.
As a research assistant (up to 4 years’ tax-free monthly grant of about 1500 Euros) the
doctoral student’s main activity is working on his/her thesis, but he/she can be
involved on a small scale into some teaching activities of the IS. One of the research

Description of the working environment
The Institute of Statistics is a renowned research centre of high international
reputation which offers a very stimulating working environment. It is equipped with
modern computing facilities, a statistics library, a vivid visitors’ programme and
ample funding for scientific travel. At the IS there are about 15-20 doctoral students
working under the supervision of 10 professors, in a variety of fields of
methodological and applied statistics, including biostatistics and actuarial sciences.
They are integrated into the Graduate School in Statistics and Actuarial Sciences which
offers them an up-to-date training in their field via regular seminar series, short
courses and workshops, all in English and often given by international short and longterm
visitors. A high percentage of the PhD students graduate from the IS and succeed
in starting a promising career, be it in academia or industry.
The IS is part of a large international research network. It has numerous academic
contacts, including those to neighbouring fields (medicine, agronomy, social science,
economy, finance and engineering) as well as collaborations with industry. It is placed
in the heart of a modern, vivid and international university campus, in close proximity
of Brussels and its international airport, and in short travel distance to other European
capitals.

sciences. This diploma must be obtained with at least distinction or an
