About this position

PhD opportunity at the University of Canterbury with Giuseppe Loporcaro, Senior Lecturer, on a project exploring how 3D concrete printing can help create safer, lower-carbon structures in earthquake-prone regions.

The research sits at the intersection of structural engineering, seismic performance, numerical modelling, finite element analysis, structural optimisation, and additive manufacturing. It will use unique large-scale experimental data from UC to develop advanced modelling and optimisation tools that improve seismic performance while reducing material use and embodied carbon.

This is a strong fit for applicants with a Master’s in Structural Engineering or a related field who are interested in modelling, simulation, experimental research, and the future of construction. The scholarship includes a $32,650/year stipend, PhD tuition fees for up to three years, and up to $5,000 in research expenses. There are no citizenship or residency restrictions.

Deadline: 27 October 2026.

Apply: Submit your application through the UC Scholarship Portal. The supervisor asks applicants not to email or message on LinkedIn.
