The Sustainable Aviation Hub of the DCU Institute for Business and Society invites applications for three (3) PhD scholarships focusing on aviation and sustainability.
The PhD will focus on developing a flexible, incentive-based pricing framework for #MEaaS, sitting at the intersection of transport, energy, and smart cities.
This PhD position seeks a mathematically strong candidate with solid modelling, programming, and research skills, motivated to advance data-driven and optimization-based solutions for passenger railway transport in close collaboration with practice.
The projects will each pursue disruptive and transformative research to advance the sustainability of aviation. Each will investigate or develop technologies or policies with the potential to create a sector visibly different from today’s.
This project aims to develop novel multifunctional polymer-based composites for (soft) robotics, focusing on bio-inspired tactile sensing skins, actuators, and adaptive structures.
The SustAI: UKRI AI Centre for Doctoral Training in AI for Sustainability is recruiting 15 PhD students starting in September 2026. It is a 4-year integrated PhD programme with an enhanced annual stipend of £24k.
