You will lecture and teach undergraduate and graduate students, including support for the REMS CDT, and contribute to the teaching, research, and academic administration of the Department. You will contribute to a research project in offshore geotechnical engineering funded by Ørsted, as well as lead independent geotechnical research, sponsored by research councils and/or industry.

 

You will possess a PhD in a relevant field and additional research experience. Good communication skills and an aptitude for teaching and awareness of pedagogic methods are essential. You should have extensive specialist knowledge in geotechnical engineering.

 

Informal enquiries may be addressed to Professor Byron Byrne: [log in to unmask].
