    Applications are invited for a PhD Studentship starting in October 2013 to undertake research in climate-based daylight modelling and its application to solve traditional, novel and emerging problems in the daylighting design of buildings at all scales from individual spaces to urban settings.

    To be of practical use in industry, the disparate strands of CBDM research need to be synthesised to create a robust and authoritative modelling framework - one that has well defined stages, methodologies, quality assurance procedures, etc.

    CBDM has been applied to a wide range of real-world projects, e.g., In addition to working closely with industry, the project is aligned with the aims of two International Commission for Illumination (CIE) Technical Committees on CBDM and Daylighting.

    Thus the project will have significant impact on the future use and development of CBDM in both research and practice.

    The candidate will work in close collaboration with Arup, and be expected to undertake visits/internships at Arup offices in London lasting a minimum of approximately three months over the duration of the project.

    The studentship is open to graduates from numerate disciplines who are interested in daylight simulation.

    A lower qualification is acceptable if supplemented with an appropriate postgraduate (MSc) qualification and relevant experience.5 years and covers fees and a tax-exempt stipend of ?1,000 per year) for the 2013/2014 academic year with cost of living adjustments in years 2 and 3.
