We have 11 Civil Engineering PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships in Edinburgh
Geotechnical Seismic Isolation Technology for Global Earthquake Resilience and Environmental Sustainability
The key idea is that Rubber-Soil mixtures (RSm), derived from car tyres, can be used to modify the foundation and protect civil structures against the action of earthquakes at beneficial economic and environmental costs. Read more
Advancement of Innovative Engineered Bamboo, Timber and Hybrid Construction Elements
Engineered bamboo, engineered timber, and bamboo-timber composites are emerging as sustainable construction materials due to their environmental benefits and impressive structural properties. . Read more
Environmental Impact of Construction on Peatlands
Reducing greenhouse gasses (GHG) emissions is one of the main goals of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement (signed in 2015 during COP21) which seeks to limit the global raise in temperature to 1.5 °C. Read more
The influence of particle characteristics on the field-scale geomechanical behaviour of soils
It is well recognised that many geotechnical phenomena, such as liquefaction, crushing, dissolution effects and failure are affected by macro-scale properties such as initial density, anisotropy, permeability and compressibility, amongst others. Read more
From 3D Digital Documentation to Structural interventions for historic masonry structures
Engineering problems related to conservation and restoration of Cultural Heritage are attracting increasing attention by researchers, offering opportunities for novel research and industry collaborations. Read more
Could in service life concrete carbonation lead to negative emissions?

CDT in Green Industrial Futures
This advert will close once a suitable candidate has been found. This PhD is one of a number of projects hosted by the Centre for Doctoral Training in Green Industrial Futures (CDT-GIF). Read more
Digitalising buildings at scale for improved environmental performance
The School of Engineering at the University of Edinburgh invites applications for a fully funded PhD scholarship on the digitalisation of buildings. Read more
Recycling Polymeric based Composites for Construction Applications
In the UK, glass fibre-reinforced plastic (GFRP) contributes to 75,000 tons end of life waste in addition to 6,200 tons of production waste. Read more
Adaptive and smart structures for operational variability and life extension
This project aims to investigate the capabilities of adaptive structures that change their geometry and mechanical properties to accommodate operational loading and extend their lifespan, thereby supporting sustainable infrastructure and a circular economy. Read more
Vibration data and underlying physics for adaptive structural health monitoring
In the context of long-term monitoring applications, there are numerous structural states that exhibit similar behavior but cannot be generalized with a single model (whether data- or physics-based) due to the inherent time-variant nature of structural evolution. Read more
EPSRC InDustrial CDT in Offshore Renewable Energy (IDCORE)
Fully funded, industrially-driven, Engineering Doctorate in Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE); receive bespoke training; be immersed in the commercial activities of an industrial sponsor; be paid an enhanced, tax-free, stipend (£24,797) and be supported by four leading ORE Universities (Edinburgh, Strathclyde, Exeter and Swansea).
