Call for PhD fellowship candidate: Hong Kong Government PhD Fellowship Recruitment - Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Hong Kong, Dr. Wang Jiaji 

Hong Kong Government PhD Fellowship: https://cerg1.ugc.edu.hk/hkpfs/index.html 

Dr. Wang Jiaji, Assistant Professor in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Hong Kong, is recruiting one fully-funded PhD student in structural engineering. Outstanding applicants from top universities (such as C9 in Mainland China, the University of Tokyo in Japan, and the National University of Singapore) who have received national scholarships from the Ministry of Education (or first-class scholarships) are strongly encouraged to apply for the Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme (HKPFS) and the Presidential Scholarship of the University of Hong Kong (HKU-PS). Successful candidates will be provided with an annual living allowance of HK$319,000 and a conference and research-related travel allowance of HK$13,000 per year by the Hong Kong Research Grants Council, with tuition fees waived. HKU will also provide additional living allowances (HK$20,000 to HK$40,000 per year) and ensure on-campus accommodation for the aforementioned awardees. Unsuccessful candidates may still be eligible for an annual scholarship of HK$18,000 and a tuition fee waiver. Dr. Wang Jiaji's research will focus on the integration of rapidly developing machine learning methods with computational mechanics, structural engineering, supercomputing, and other fields. His research areas mainly include: solving or exploring partial differential equations using physics-driven machine learning methods, establishing digital twin models of engineering structures using data-driven machine learning methods, structural health monitoring technology based on machine vision and artificial intelligence, large-scale structural dynamic response simulation based on high-performance computing platforms, simulation and design optimization of large complex steel-concrete composite structures, and intelligent structural isolation and vibration reduction based on periodic metamaterials. PhD students will have access to cutting-edge supercomputing resources during their research. Dr. Wang Jiaji has established good cooperation with many frontier research groups in the United States, Japan, and Europe. The expected enrollment date is Feb 2025 to Nov 2025.

Professional requirements: Applicants should have completed a bachelor's degree or higher in civil engineering (or structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, disaster prevention and mitigation, hydraulic engineering, transportation engineering, etc.) or other related fields (mechanics, mathematics, computer science and technology, etc.) before the enrollment date. English language requirements can be found at https://gradsch.hku.hk/prospective_students/application/admission_requirement 

Introduction to scholarships at the University of Hong Kong: The Department of Civil Engineering at HKU has about 30 faculty members, over 400 undergraduate students, and over 500 graduate students. The department offers various academic programs, including bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees in civil engineering. The Department of Civil Engineering has been ranked in the top 20 in the QS World University Subject Rankings for several years. Members of the Department are actively engaged in innovative research and new technologies in the areas of construction engineering and management, geotechnical engineering, structural engineering, transportation engineering, and water and environmental engineering. The Department has established three research centers to promote interdisciplinary/multidisciplinary collaboration, impactful research within HKU and the faculty, including the Centre for Environmental Engineering Research, the Centre for Innovation in Construction and Infrastructure Development, and the Centre for Water Technology and Policy. The Department has led numerous large-scale interdisciplinary competitive research projects funded by the Hong Kong Research Grants Council, government, and industry. The Department also has many major facilities and laboratories in the areas of building informatics, structural engineering, modular integrated construction, environmental hydraulics, environmental engineering, carbon neutrality, geotechnical engineering, and more. In recent years, the Department of Civil Engineering at HKU has achieved a large number of internationally leading research results, supported by projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation and the Hong Kong region, and has formed a wide range of influence internationally. The full scholarship for PhD students at HKU is HK$18,030 to HK$18,520 per month, and exceptionally outstanding PhD applicants may apply for the HKU Presidential Outstanding Doctoral Student Scholarship (with an annual funding of over HK$400,000) or other scholarship support. Interested PhD applicants are sincerely welcome to send their resumes, transcripts, and research statements (including research experience and future research plans) by email to Dr. Wang Jiaji (cewang[AT]hku.hk) with the subject line: "PhD candidate application at HKU". Qualified applicants will be notified for interviews. The application deadline is October 1, 2024. Information on PhD student applications at the University of Hong Kong:
