Description
The Faculty of Sciences of the Free University of Brussels (ULB)
announces the opening of a full-time position for a "chargé de cours"

groups of the Computer Science Department, in one of the following
areas:
Algorithms
Combinatorial Optimization
Stochastic modeling and machine-learning methods
Other areas may be considered depending on the quality of the
