Civil Engineering PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students

We have 274 Civil Engineering PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for Self-funded Students

Using AI to predict the effect of climate change on earthworks

  Research Group: School of Civil Engineering
Background. Recent experience and future climate projections show increasingly wet winters and increasingly dry summers. The resulting wetting and drying cycles are causing increased shrinkage and swelling of earthworks. Read more

Effect of sea level rise, coastal erosion, and flooding risk on track

  Research Group: School of Civil Engineering
Background. With the events at Dawlish and sea water levels at Skegness predicted to rise 35cm by 2050, and coupled with the recent effects of storms such as Babet, coastal issues will become more prevalent in the future. Read more

Effect of long wet days and seasons, or intense and heavy rainfall on track, drainage and geotechnical

  Research Group: School of Civil Engineering
Background. Modelling strongly suggests that these weather effects will become more severe by 2080, particularly instances of Storm Babet and the incident at the Bradway Tunnel highlight this, and the subsequent impact on services/users. Read more

Unlocking Sustainability for a Thriving Planet: Exploring Innovations in Circular Construction for a Greener Future

Are you passionate about addressing global challenges such as CO2 emissions, resource scarcity, and climate change? Do you have a keen interest in sustainable construction practices? We invite applications for a PhD position focused on "Circular Construction" at the University of Birmingham, Department of Civil Engineering. Read more

Valuing Green Infrastructure for a Well adapted UK

  Research Group: School of Civil Engineering
It is widely accepted that we cannot simply build our way out of the climate & biodiversity emergency (e.g. using traditional grey infrastructure solution). Read more

Light-weight High Performance Concrete for Floating Structures (FAC23/EE/MCE/BRABHA)

This is an exciting project, addressing the complex challenges posed by climate change and the need for sustainable infrastructure, developing light-weight high performance concrete (LWHPC) for modular floating structure through laboratory testing and lots of modelling. Read more

THREE PHD STUDENTSHIPS ON SUSTAINABLE AVIATION

Applications are invited for three Ph.D. studentships at the Brahmal Institute, a collaborative research centre at Imperial College enabling blue-sky thinking to address adverse environmental impacts of aviation. Read more

Internet of Things (IoT) based monitoring of changing environmental conditions and their effects on soil, water and air quality

  Research Group: School of Civil Engineering
This PhD would investigate how meteorological and environmental conditions (e.g. heavy rainfall, windstorms, humidity, extreme temperatures, water level etc.) affect the soil, water and air quality. Read more
