About this position

New research opportunities are open in Zagreb within the ZAGGREGATE project at the Faculty of Civil Engineering, University of Zagreb and the Croatian Centre for Earthquake Engineering, in collaboration with the EESD Lab at EPFL.

The call includes two positions: PhD position 6 on damage-informed seismic assessment and Postdoc 3 on assessment and retrofit guidance. The PhD topic focuses on pre-existing earthquake damage, residual seismic capacity, and cumulative damage under earthquake sequences. The postdoctoral role focuses on integrating project results into practical assessment and retrofit methodologies, including a Zagreb case study, engineering guidance, and knowledge transfer.

Research themes include earthquake engineering, structural engineering, historic masonry, seismic risk, vulnerability, retrofit, experimental and field investigations, and numerical modelling. International applicants are explicitly welcome.

The deadline for both new positions is 15 October 2026. The post also notes that applications remain open for three previously announced PhD positions, closing on 30 September 2026.
