PhD Studentship: Concrete4Change and the Centre for Sustainable Chemistry
1 month ago
Applications are invited for an industrial led PhD studentship aimed at developing new, sustainable, advanced concrete materials with carbon negative footprints. To achieve this breakthrough we will use a multi-discipline approach incorporating organic and polymer chemistry, materials science and leading-edge data analysis, including machine learning/AI approaches. We are looking to attract applicants from chemistry/materials chemistry with an innate drive and curiosity to deliver new solutions to building materials that are needed within the next 10 years.
Key features:
PhD training that will build upon the skills of your master’s degree (A minimum of an upper second-class honours’ degree BSc degree with appropriate additional experience) in chemistry or materials chemistry. Training based in the unique Carbon Neutral Laboratory at the University of Nottingham (UoN) in partnership with a leading Nottingham SME Concrete4Change (C4C) and the School of Architecture Design and the Built Environment at Nottingham Trent University (NTU). Unique PhD training programme: 2 days in C4C, 3 days in UoN/NTU per week aimed at accelerated ‘real World’ deployment of research results. Involvement with the wide UK community dedicated to achieving ‘green’ concrete for a sustainable future in record time. CO2 sequestration in concrete and production of high value chemicals from CO2 are considered the only environmental solutions with a positive ROI. Learn the most invaluable skills required for the next few decades today and spearheadhumanity’s quest for decarbonisation.The studentship will be available from 1st October 2024 as a 4-year PhD with stipend at EPSRC standard rates starting at £18,622 per year with awards increasing every year, typically with inflation.
This position is only available for HOME Students.
We value diversity and are committed to equality of opportunity and flexible working patterns. Applications are welcome from candidates who have non-traditional academic backgrounds.
