??? Why Aston?
Aston is a hub for impactful, industry-driven research with strengths in sustainability, digitalisation, and international collaboration. The selected candidate will join the Centre for Research in Circular Economy and Advanced Sustainability, working at the intersection of logistics, AI, and policy.
?? Start Date: October 2025
?? Funding: Full tuition + competitive stipend for living expenses
?? Eligibility: Open to UK and international applicants
?? Interested? Let’s connect! Drop me a message.
?? Please share to help us reach aspiring sustainability champions worldwide!
