Marie Curie Trainee (Early Stage Researcher) -"Alternate Means to Communicate Measure Lead"

InnoChain is a four-year international research network for highly motivated doctoral researchers, in which state-of-the-art research is combined with a comprehensive training and industrial secondment programme. The network is funded by the European Union’s Framework Programme for Research and Innovation Horizon 2020, under the Marie Skodowska-Curie Actions Innovative Training Network scheme. This call is for a three-year PhD fellowship that is fully integrated within the InnoChain network. The PhD researcher will be enrolled at The Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL. The PhD fellow is expected to develop new design methods for interfacing intuitive and exploratory design speculation with rich and verified data of site conditions and dimensional accuracies. The appointee will work to provide existing CAD and BIM design tools with the means to speculate at early design stages with assured and accurate data, not merely as a contextual framework, but as a conceptual framework.
