PhD scholarship in Coastal Engineering (Wave-Vegetation Interaction) - DTU Construct

A three-year PhD fellowship in the Section for Fluid Mechanics, Coastal and Maritime Engineering at DTU, studying how waves interact with coastal vegetation and its potential for coastal protection and climate adaptation. The research combines fluid mechanics, mathematical analysis and numerical modelling within the project “Marine advection and dissipation in the vegetated coastal environment”, financed by the Independent Research Fund Denmark, in collaboration with DTU, DHI, University College Dublin and Northeastern University. Anticipated start: 1 February 2027 or by agreement.

A two-year master’s degree (120 ECTS) or equivalent in a relevant engineering or physical-science discipline; applicants may apply before completing the degree.
