The School of Computing Science is looking for a Research Associate to make a leading contribution to a project in the automatic generation of federated digital twins for the decarbonisation of transport. Non-traditional career paths are welcome.
The University of Glasgow is in a consortium of seven universities, supporting the formation of a new national research centred funded by a significant UKRI and stakeholder co-investment for a 5-year and £45M programme of challenge-led research into digital twinning for transport decarbonisation. This new national research hub will be responsible for delivering new knowledge, technical capabilities and policy advisement relating to UK digital twinning (or transport decarbonisation) priorities. This highly ambitious programme of research is supported by over 65 industrial, research and stakeholder organisations.
Working with Dr Paul Harvey, Prof David Flyyn and others across the consortium, the successful candidate will be expected to contribute to the formulation and submission of research publications and research proposals aligned to the automatic creation of digital twins, as well as help manage and direct this complex and challenging project as opportunities allow.
The consortium behind this national hub represents a highly interdisciplinary network of experts, and includes a significant cohort of early career researchers, research associates and PhD students, who will work closely together in a multi-disciplinary collaborative environment to deliver this ground-breaking research.
Informal enquiries about the role are encouraged and should be addressed to:
Dr Paul Harvey (paul.harvey@glasgow.ac.uk).
