Urban Building Energy Researcher Wanted

Vor 7 Tagen


Zürich, Zürich, Schweiz NZZone Vollzeit

NZZone's Architecture and Building Systems (A/S) research group investigates energy systems in the context of climate and human comfort at the building and urban scale. We are particularly interested in research and application of Urban Building Energy Modelling (UBEM) to generate knowledge about cities and neighbourhoods as interconnected systems in order to support sustainable urban development and the well-being of their inhabitants.

This PhD position is part of the National Research Programme 81 (NRP 81 "Building Culture") of the Swiss National Science Foundation SNSF within the project "Beyond Replacement Construction: Implementing the Socio-Ecological Transformation of the Swiss Built Environment". The project focuses on the socio-ecological transformation of urban buildings in Swiss cities through soft densification (e.g. vertical extensions, infill development, reuse) as an alternative to demolition and total renovation.

The successful candidate will work closely with researchers from different backgrounds, stakeholders and the general public to identify optimal locations for densification based on spatial, architectural, and socio-economic assessment. They will also develop and apply new data-driven methods to define and parameterize densification strategies.
