About this position
Texas A&M University’s Environmental Sustainability and Resilience (ENSURE) Lab is advertising a PhD position in an interdisciplinary project on accelerating mass timber construction in Texas.
The research will combine Building Information Modeling (BIM), building energy simulation, life cycle assessment (LCA), construction cost analysis, and climate resilience to develop practical, industry-ready mass timber solutions for commercial buildings. The project includes collaboration with construction industry partners, making it a strong fit for students interested in applied research with real-world impact.
Preferred backgrounds include construction, architecture, civil/architectural engineering, building science, BIM, sustainable construction, energy modeling, LCA, or related areas. Prior experience with mass timber is desirable but not required.
This is a recently funded opportunity. The post does not specify stipend, tuition coverage, or a formal deadline, but it asks candidates to apply and start as soon as possible.
The announcement is posted by Manish Dixit, Associate Professor at Texas A&M University. Interested candidates should consult the attached position description for the application instructions.
