Position Description

The Department of Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering, along with our interdisciplinary research team comprising experts in Civil Engineering, Architectural Engineering, Neuroscience, and Computer Science at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), invites applications for a Ph.D. student position, starting in Spring or Fall 2025. The successful candidate will engage in cutting-edge research utilizing electroencephalography (EEG), functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and/or functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technologies to explore neuroergonomics and neuroenvironmental design applications in architecture and construction. This position is particularly suitable for candidates with a background in biomedical engineering, neuroscience, or civil/architectural engineering interested in applying their expertise to improve human interactions with built environments.

Key Research Areas

Neuroergonomics: Optimizing work environments and systems through understanding brain and behavior interactions.

Neuroenvironmental Design: Examining the impact of various architectural design and environments (e.g., temperature)

The Carbon Credit Assessment Framework aims to develop a computational environment that integrates environmental and economic perspectives to support the analysis of alternative technological pathways in offshore production. The project focuses on the conceptual modeling of offshore production chains, the elicitation of environmental parameters, and the development of tools for quantitatively assessing GHG emissions. These tools will be integrated with economic risk assessments (carried out by other team members) to support decision-making and the adoption of efficient emission reduction strategies.

Development of a conceptual description of offshore production chains through knowledge representation techniques, focusing on environmental parameters. Development of mathematical tools for quantitative assessment of GHG emissions along the production chains. Conducting and supporting the implementation of case studies to test and evaluate the developed systems. Support in supervising the Technical Training scholarship holders responsible for system development.
