Join us!!!

• Apply for a UCL EPSRC DTP studentship now! There is one project proposed by our group, which is about mobility and energy. Studentship is open to both home and international students. Application deadline: 13:00 UK time on 08 January 2024.

• We have no opening Research Fellow positions, but some may become available at this year’s and next year’s end. Please keep an eye on our website and follow the CASA Twitter account.

• Postdocs or final-year PhD students with relevant backgrounds in urban mobility, transport planning/urban planning, spatial data science, and urban informatics are strongly encouraged to apply for fellowship schemes (e.g., MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships, UKRC fellowships) with our support.

• I am looking for 1-2 PhD students each year. If you’re interested, please email me your CV and research proposal. We welcome inquiries from excellent candidates wishing to pursue research that investigates (but not limited to):
  • spatial-social inequality
  • spatial AI for urban mobility analysis
  • data-driven planning tools
  • urban simulation models
  • digital justice in developing context

• You are encouraged to apply for PhD studentship at UCL, which is highly competitive, though. You can find more information from the below links. China Scholarship Council-UCL Joint Research Scholarship UCL Research Scholarships (GRS and ORS); UCL EPSRC DTP - Open Doctoral Studentships Competition UBEL ESRC Studentships; The Bartlett Promise PhD Scholarship

• Visiting scholar’s applications are welcome at any time. Our group hosts 1-2 visitors (students&scholar) per year. The relevant information can be found on the CASA website - Academic Visitors, which is in line with UCL’s Affiliate Academic Scheme

• ERC provides Additional opportunities, as it says - “You can develop your career through public funding linked to ERC projects, even if you do not receive an ERC Grant.”. In particular, you should look at the International Arrangement funding which is available via national funding agencies.
