PhD positions in modular building circularity

Ph.D. graduate assistant positions in automated BIM-LCA development for embodied carbon counting

Sustainable Built Environment (SBE) Lab, Faculty of Forestry

Sustainable Built Environment (SBE) Lab at The University of British Columbia (UBC) is pleased to announce two Ph.D. graduate assistant positions with full financial support starting as early as January 2025. Successful candidates will be joining our vibrant team at the Sustainable Built Environment Lab, where we delve into the exciting world of sustainable construction. You'll have the chance to work closely with the vibrant lab members, focusing on creating Building Information Modeling (BIM) add-in tools and integrating detailed life cycle inventories of modular building supply chains. This research will involve building embodied carbon calculations, BIM programing, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), robust energy simulation tools, zero carbon policies, to develop assessment frameworks considering life cycle energy, carbon, and cost performance.

Dr. Haibo Feng is Assistant Professor in Wood Science with expertise in sustainable construction and building performance.

Application Instructions

Candidates with backgrounds in Civil Engineering, Construction Engineering and Management, Industrial Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Mathematics, Computer Science or Engineering, or related fields are encouraged to apply.
