YOUR JOB

As a collaborator on the project, you will research carbon storage and environmental performance of underutilized wood by means of Life Cycle Assessment. Starting from the review of existing modelling approaches, you will develop a (dynamic) modelling method to include carbon storage in life cycle modelling in an accessible and robust manner. Furthermore, you will work on a multi-criteria sustainability assessment approach encompassing both environmental performance, carbon storage, social and economic aspects to validate the circular concepts and solutions that are developed by other researchers within the WoodStock consortium.

- You will be part of the UGent Building Physics research group (Faculty of Engineering and Architecture) and the UGent Woodlab research group (Faculty of Bioscience Engineering), who have been collaborating on topics related to wood and biobased building materials for over 7 years.

Job profile

- You enjoy performing research. You are independent, self-motivated and eager to learn.

- Experience and/or a master thesis in the context of life cycle assessment of buildings or wood construction is highly recommended.

- You can communicate fluently (both orally and written) in English.

- You can plan and execute your tasks independently and efficiently.

- You are a team player.

- Recently graduated students are encouraged to apply.

WHAT WE CAN OFFER YOU

- We offer a full-time position as a doctoral fellow, consisting of an initial period of 12 months, which - after a positive evaluation, will be extended to a total maximum of 48 months.

- Your contract will start on 01/03/2025 at the earliest.

- The fellowship amount is 100% of the net salary of an AAP member in equal family circumstances. The individual fellowship amount is determined by the Department of Personnel and Organization based on family status and seniority. A grant that meets the conditions and criteria of the regulations for doctoral fellowships is considered free of personal income tax.

- All Ghent University staff members enjoy a number of benefits, such as a wide range of training and education opportunities, 36 days of holiday leave (on an annual basis for a full-time job) supplemented by annual fixed bridge days, bicycle allowance and eco vouchers.
