Civil Engineering (group) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 35 Civil Engineering (group) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Impact of grain roughness on porous media flows under conditions relevant to the subsurface

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Pathogen Aerosolization and Detection in Building Wastewater System Fluid Dynamics

  Research Group: Institute of Sustainable Built Environment
The development of high-rise buildings is now at an unprecedented rate, with their number and scale rapidly and dramatically changing the landscape of global cities. The creation of these complex vertical communities poses major operational challenges for the systems relied upon for occupant safety and the responsible management of wastewater resources.

Climate resilient submerged infrastructure

Supervisory Team: Dr Gustavo de Almeida; Dr Sergio Maldonado. Project description. Applications are invited for a fully funded PhD position on the investigation of novel design methods to improve the resilience of submerged infrastructure (i.e. Read more

Ecohydrological modelling for regenerative agriculture

Applications are open for a PhD scholarship at Imperial College London to start by September 2024. The PhD is in collaboration with EPFL Lausanne, and the research group of Prof Sara Bonetti. Read more

PhD in Advanced Characterisation of Hydrogen in Alloys

Applications are open for a PhD scholarship at Imperial College London. The project will involve the development of a new grain boundary engineering strategy for the design of hydrogen-resistant alloys. Read more

Effects of flexible vegetation on oscillatory flow hydrodynamics and sediment dynamics

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Droplet Impacts with Functional Surfaces

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Predicting and preventing cyclist accidents

Supervisory Team.   Dr Ioannis Kaparias. Project description. Cycling is an increasingly popular mode of travel in cities due to the great advantages that it offers in terms of space consumption, health and environmental sustainability. Read more

Fouling control and cleaning of membrane for water treatment

Supervisory Team.   Yongqiang Liu. Project description. Globally, water scarcity is a pressing issue, affecting between two and three billion people worldwide, as reported by the recent UN World Water Development report. Read more

Active Noise Control on Controllable Flexible Surfaces

Supervisory Team. Chuang Shi, Jordan Cheer. Project description. Active noise control (ANC) has been developed over many years to mitigate unwanted noise in various environments. Read more

New methods for removal of pollutants from water

Emerging pollutants have been linked to adverse effects in humans and wildlife, such species e.g. metaldehyde as a persistent pesticide, as well as pentabromobiphenylether, 4-nonylphenol, C10-C13 chloroalkanes and di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate, which are listed as priority hazardous substances by the EU (refs.
