Imperial College London is advertising a PhD project on coastal cliff instability due to extreme weather conditions , based in the Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering in London, United Kingdom. The project investigates how climate change , extreme drying , and heatwaves may trigger coastal cliff failure, with a focus on the hydromechanical response of unsaturated coastal geomaterials (especially the Mercia Mudstone Group). The research combines advanced laboratory element testing wit...

Imperial College London has launched a new MSc in Geological Engineering for the 2027–28 academic year. The programme is designed for students with backgrounds in geology, physical sciences or engineering who want to develop advanced knowledge at the intersection of geological and engineering practice. The course is part of Imperial’s internationally renowned Geotechnical Engineering Section , alongside the existing MSc programmes in Geotechnical Engineering and Geotechnical Engineering with Off...

PhD opportunity at the University of Leeds in Climate Resilience of Infrastructure to Rainfall (PGR-P-1395), supervised by Professor David Connolly in the School of Civil Engineering . This project focuses on how climate change-driven rainfall affects transport, geotechnical, and structural infrastructure. Research themes include rainfall-induced slope collapse, geotechnical instability, soil shrink-swell cycles, water ponding on roofs and bridge decks, structural overloading, drainage, and adap...

The University of Sheffield is offering a fully funded PhD investigating how forests can mitigate landslide runout and reduce risks to infrastructure. The project is supervised by Alessandro Leonardi and Dr Jill Johnson, in collaboration with Adrian Koe at AtkinsRéalis, and is supported through the EPSRC Doctoral Landscape Award. The research will combine physics-based numerical simulations, machine learning and laboratory experiments to understand how forest structure and management affect the ...
