A fully funded PhD position is available at the University of Sheffield on centrifuge modelling of submarine landslides. The project aims to address the challenges posed by underwater landslides to offshore infrastructure, including subsea power cables, and support renewable energy goals.

The research will be supervised by Alessandro Leonardi and Elisabeth Bowman. It offers full tuition coverage, a tax-free UKRI stipend (£19,237 per annum), a £4,500 research grant for project-related costs, and an industrial placement at Geowynd.

Application deadline: 29 January 2025
