The Department of the Built Environment (www.anglia.ac.uk/be) at Anglia Ruskin University are looking for high quality prospective doctoral students who will contribute to the four core areas of research within the department.
Eligible candidates
Applicants should hold a Masters Degree or equivalent, in an Engineering or Built Environment-related subject. Exceptional candidates with a first or upper second-class degree may also be considered. Experience with finite element modelling, artificial neural network modelling and/or use of genetic algorithms, may be an advantage. The successful candidate will be registered as a full-time research student, and will be expected to undertake up to 6 hours of teaching each week during term time. Training will be provided in research methods and in teaching but experience of assisting with teaching and learning in Higher Education is desirable, along with good communication skills.

The studentships must be taken up by September 2010.
The available research topics and potential supervisors within the Sustainable Construction Materials Research Group are as follows:
Dr Sunny Nwaubani and Dr Konstantinos Poutos:
•Predictive modelling of the properties of High Performance concrete:
To study the long-term effect of Nanomaterials on the microstructure-compressive strength relationship of low carbon cement systems.
•Optimised investigation of the properties of Waste Glass Concrete using software packages.
How to apply
To apply, please follow the regular research degree application process, as shown on our website: www.anglia.ac.uk/applyresearch. Your application should include a project proposal for the research topic that interests you. Could you also please ensure that your application is clearly marked 'Department of the Built Environment PhD Studentship'.
