[Nguyen, Trung Thanh]

Dear Colleagues,

My apologies for cross-posting. We (Liverpool John Moores University) may be able to offer a small number of full PhD scholarships. The call is open to both UK and international candidates.

     *   Deadline 7th July 2023
     *   Full tuition fees,
     *   Maintenance stipend + running cover (~ £20,222 per annum) for three years,


Any area in OR/optimisation/simulation/data analytics/computational intelligence/IoT/ transportation/logistics will be considered. Please have a look at this link for some examples of our current/past projects on air quality and green transportation https://tinyurl.com/y67eddrw . Other projects that we have been/ are running include:

  *   Evolutionary computation or meta-heuristics or heuristics
  *   OR/optimisation/simulation/data analytics applications in rail, in partnership with Merseyrail, Northern, Network Rail, and Rail Delivery Group
  *   OR applications/data analytics in maritime, in partnership with UK, EU and overseas ports
  *   OR applications/data analytics in sustainable transportation, e.g. renewable and alternative energy, zero-emission vessels, bicycle, e-bikes, walking, buses, emission/congestion reduction etc., in partnership with local authorities and transport authorities (e.g. the ones in Liverpool and Manchester)
  *   OR applications in logistics (e.g. bin packing, vehicle routing etc.) in partnership with logistics companies, especially those in airports, ports, and manufacturing plants (especially those in Liverpool).
  *   OR applications in manufacturing, in partnership with car manufacturers e.g. Vauxhall and Jaguar Land Rover.
  *   IoT and intelligent sensors for air quality and sustainable travel/transport. We have developed a number of applications on this and already have a network of IoT sensors across Liverpool City Region.
Interested candidates please contact Prof. Trung Thanh Nguyen T.T.Nguyen at ljmu.ac.uk<mailto:T.T.Nguyen at ljmu.ac.uk> with your full CV and transcripts.
