University of Southern Denmark (SDU)

International students in Denmark

The University of Southern Denmark welcomed the first students onto the campus in Odense in September 1966, and things have been developing by leaps and bounds ever since. We now have five faculties with more than 27,000 students, almost 20% of whom are from abroad, and more than 4,000 employees distributed across our main campus in Odense and regional campuses in Slagelse, Kolding, Esbjerg and Sønderborg. Several international studies document that we conduct world-class research and are one of the top fifty young universities in the world. Over the years, the University of Southern Denmark has interwoven many lives. The roughly five years which a student invests in a university education will lay the groundwork for the rest of his or her life. And with around 115 different study programmes in the fields of the humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, health sciences and engineering, graduates of the University of Southern Denmark are now members of virtually every profession in the international community.

Description

PhD in Urban Resilience

University of southern denmark , denmark.

The Department of Technology and Innovation (ITI) at the Faculty of Engineering (TEK) at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU), invites applications for a position as PhD candidate in Urban Resilience within the UNESCO Chair on Urban Resilience (SDU.Resilience) , at the Section for Civil and Architectural Engineering (CAE).

The PhD student is a three-years position, with opportunities for further career progression. Specifically, we are looking for a highly motivated and qualified candidate that can support our research on urban resilience, with focus on climate change adaptation and specifically conducting research on the combined challenge of urban floods and droughts, and on integrated urban planning solutions.

The research is part of the research and knowledge transfer activities that SDU.Resilience is conducting in collaboration with UNESCO; particularly contributing to both the delivery of the Strategic Plan for the ninth phase of the Intergovernmental Hydrological Programme (IHP-IX), and the work of the Disaster Risk Reduction Unit.

Research environment SDU.Resilience is an expanding research team coordinated by Professor WSR on Urban Resilience Nicola Tollin, conducting transdisciplinary research, education and knowledge transfer activities on urban resilience at international level, with a strong network of academic and inter-governmental organizations partners worldwide.

SDU.Resilience investigates urban resilient transition, addressing systemically the causes and effects of climate change in cities, including climate change adaptation and mitigation, and other related major urban challenges: urbanization, pandemics and disaster risk reduction, in the wider frame of sustainable development.

Our research aims at informing and supporting policymaking at international and national level, and science-based urban planning and design for local action, both in the Global North and South.

SDU.Resilience specific knowledge areas include:

• Climate Change Governance
• Human Health and Climate
• Water and Human Settlements
• Circular Economy and Built Environment
• Capacity Building for Climate Action
• Coastal and Maritime Planning
• Green Infrastructures and Nature Based Solutions

Work Environment SDU.Resilience is based at the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Southern Denmark in Odense. We offer an inclusive, international and interdisciplinary working environment, with strong international collaborations. Our ambition is to recruit, develop and retain talented researcher committed to academic and professional excellence and the development of the research group and the department.

Duties and responsibilities The postholder will contribute to further develop and expand research, education and knowledge transfer activities across the SDU.Resilience knowledge areas, with specific focus on planning for climate change adaptation in face of floods and droughts in urban areas.

Specific duties and responsibility of the PhD include to:
