The Faculty of Engineering at the University of Strathclyde is one of the largest and most successful engineering faculties in the UK, and the largest in Scotland. As a leading international technological university, Strathclyde University is recognised for its world-class research, knowledge exchange and educational programmes. At the heart of this is the Faculty of Engineering, which boasts a growing research portfolio of nearly £100 million.
The Department of Naval Architecture, Ocean and Marine Engineering is a world-leader in research, whose main interests lie in: Ship Design, Stability and Safety, Marine Hydrodynamics, Marine Structures, Ocean Engineering, Marine Engineering, Emerging Technologies, Offshore Renewable Energyand Alternative Fuels. The Department makes a significant contribution to National, European and International policy-making in Marine Technology research and its application.
As part of a significant Industry-University partnership involving, in the first instance, the University of Strathclyde – Department of Naval Architecture, Ocean and Marine Engineering, Royal Caribbean Cruise Lines and DNV GL Classification Society, a Maritime Safety Research Centre (MSRC) of Excellence is being set up. The vision is to establish a world-class centre of excellence, a reference and a shaping force of maritime safety. The mission of the centre is to support the development and nurture the implementation of Life-Cycle Risk Management, accounting rationally and formally for all cost-effective measures of risk reduction and leading to sustainable cost-effective safety improvement for new and existing ships and offshore assets and to the development of a modern regulatory framework to support and nurture safety culture.
MSRC seeks to employ a Research Associate to participate in an ongoing research project. The post holder will work on the EU-funded Horizon Europe project “EcoShipYard – ESY”. The project addresses this challenge, ensuring that shipyards are not just more efficient but also more environmentally friendly during their operations. In this way, the ESY project aims to contribute to the EU’s environmental and climate goals, provide valuable insights and best practices for sustainable shipbuilding, thus benefiting both the environment and industry. The appointee will join a multidisciplinary international team with industrial partners from France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Malta, the Netherlands, Spain and Portugal.
As a Research Associate, you will play a key role in this project as part of a team, working under the general supervision of more senior colleagues. You will conduct literature reviews, collect and collate data, analyse shipyard productivity data and processes and optimise them, develop questionnaires, conduct surveys, and undertake and record the outcomes of numerical experiments. You will manage and prioritise your own workload and ensure that all activities are completed to deadlines and you will write up the results of your own research and contribute to the production of research reports and publications. You will input as a team member to administrative activities and assist, where required, with relevant teaching and knowledge exchange activities.
To be considered for the role, you should have a good honours degree and PhD in the relevant engineering subjects. You should have proven capability to write high quality research papers and knowledge of appropriate research methods. It is important to have an ability to plan and prioritise your own workload, with general supervision, and you will have an ability to work within a team environment. Excellent interpersonal and communication skills are very essential, with the ability to listen, engage and persuade, and to present complex information in an accessible way to a range of audiences and publish in high impact factor journals.
