The research activities will be integrated with the educational programmes in Civil Engineering, where the selected candidate will contribute to teaching and supervision in the areas of structural engineering.

A strong track record of research and scientific publications, as well as a demonstrated ability to attract research funding, are required for prospective associate professors. Research leadership and project management experience and excellent communication skills are considered essential.
