The doctoral research, or organized research training, in Structural Engineering is closely linked to, and a significant part of, the research that is conducted at the department. Admission to the programme is typically contingent on applying for, and being awarded a research fellowship.
Some relevent research fields are:
computational mechanics
fatigue and rupture mechanics
impact and energy abroption
constructions of concrete, steal and light metals, wood
concrete technology
biomechanics
nanomechanics
General information, handbooks, applicable rules of admission, as well as forms, can be found on the Faculty fo Engineering and Science's doctoral programme pages.
Currently, the Department of Structural Engineering has approximately 46 doctoral fellows (PhD students). On average, and for the last 10 years, seven doctoral candidates complete their studies each year.
Video cast: IVT-faculty's seminar on Good Advisory Practice is available as an online video cast. The doctoral programme committee for has planned additional seminars for the coming year.
