We are recruiting a PhD student with a start date of January 2026.
The successful student will join our Monash (Melbourne, Australia) – Warwick (UK) Alliance on the intersection of sustainable autonomous mobility.
This PhD studentship will investigate methodologies for future energy strategies for airports in different geographical areas, working with experts from the following airports: London, Melbourne, Kuala Lumpur and Florence.
We are interested in the challenges that electrification (electrical and fuel cell propulsion) brings to energy provision at an airport ecosystem, and novel solutions that can be investigated to provide an accelerated path to a more sustainable future. Additional considerations will include potential changes in user transportation habits and the increasing role of autonomy both airside and landside.
Reciprocal visits to Monash campuses will be required – Melbourne, Florence, Kuala Lumpur
