Civil Engineering, Materials Engineering

A fully funded PhD position is available at Concordia University in Montreal, Canada, supervised by Professor Ahmed Soliman. The research focuses on developing and optimizing low-carbon concrete mixtures for energy storage applications, including the ABITES concept. The role involves laboratory experiments on concrete composites with industrial waste, nanomaterials, and carbon-sequestration techniques, as well as characterizing material properties and designing concrete-based thermal energy storage systems for buildings. The fellowship offers 35,000 CAD per year for four years. Applicants should have a background in civil engineering, materials science, or related fields, and an interest in sustainable construction and energy storage. The position is open for Winter, Summer, and Fall 2026 intakes. For full details and application instructions, visit the provided link or contact Professor Soliman via LinkedIn.
