PhD Studentship in Advanced Composite/Concrete Structures, UK
Scholarship for PhD Students at University of Cambridge, UK
Job Description: A three-year PhD studentship at the University of Cambridge, in collaboration with SACAC Ltd and the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Testing and Research (EMPA), is now available. The project will investigate innovative high strength carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP) prestressed concrete systems, such as spun-concrete electricity pylons and external façade elements. The particular aim of this exciting project is to link a fundamental investigation of the long-term durability of CFRP prestressed concrete structures with the in-service requirements for practical applications.
Applicants must have a strong first degree in a relevant engineering or science subject. Knowledge of structural analysis and design and/or mechanics of materials is also desirable. The post is available from Jan/Feb 2011. The studentship will provide maintenance and covers approved College and University fees for UK/EU/Swiss students over the three-year period.
Please send a covering letter, a CV, your academic transcripts, and the names of two academic referees that can be contacted should you be short-listed, to Dr Janet Lees, Department of Engineering, Trumpington Street, Cambridge, CB2 1PZ, (Tel +44 (0)1223 332678, Fax +44 (0)1223 332662, email jmL2@eng.cam.ac.uk), to reach her not later than 15th Sept 2010.
