École des ponts et chaussées launches the second wave of MISCEA thesis proposals!

The Research Department of École des ponts et chaussées is delighted to announce the second wave of MISCEA thesis offers! You can learn more about the terms of this beautiful project developed across all of the ENPC’s laboratories on the project website.

MISCEA is co-funded by the European Commission within the framework of Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) – COFUND under grant agreement number #101126720, and will be carried out over the next 5 years. This program aims to create a network of 18 doctoral contracts, with theses focusing on the central theme of the ecological and energy transitions.

For those interested in this opportunity, MISCEA thesis proposals are available on the EURAXESS platform:

ESR01 – LES Windturbines (CEREA) – Euraxess link

ESR06 – Design and monitoring of tunnels facing energy and numerical transitions (Navier) – Euraxess link

ESR09 – Biocides in urban runoff: modelling emissions and transfer to the receiving environment for different stormwater management scenarios (LEESU) – Euraxess link

ESR10 – Sustainability and digital transition in the construction industry can 3DCP emerging technologies help? (Co-Innovation Lab ; Navier ; CIRED) – Euraxess link

ESR11 – Bio-based construction materials lca (Navier) – Euraxess link

ESR12 – Will electric mobility really contribute to the ecological transition of cities? An economic evaluation of scaling-up scenarios for the Paris region (LVMT) – Euraxess link

ESR13 – How do energy prices shape the demand for mobility: a retrospective and prospective analysis (LVMT) – Euraxess link

ESR14 – Durability of low-carbon concretes: experimental study and modelling of carbonation and chloride diffusion (Navier) – Euraxess link

ESR15 – Multiscale comparison and merging of dual polarization weather radar rainfall measurements (HM&CO) – Euraxess link
