PhD Researcher in Circularity & Life Cycle Assessment of Mass Timber Buildings

This PhD research position focuses on bridging the gap between architectural design, construction, circularity, and the environmental impact of mass timber buildings. The research will involve assessing circular construction strategies, conducting life cycle assessments, and analyzing end-of-life scenarios for timber structures. The selected candidate will work within the SuRE research domain at Hasselt University, contributing to innovative sustainability research in architecture. The role includes international collaboration with partners in Europe, North America, and Australia and offers the opportunity to engage with experts and stakeholders globally. The candidate should have a background in architecture, engineering, or a related field and demonstrate a strong interest in sustainable construction and circular economy principles.
