UCD Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 2 (Passive Seismic Geophysical Methods), UCD School of Civil Engineering, Until 28 Feb 2026
UCD School of Civil Engineering, University College Dublin
Applications are invited for a temporary post of a UCD Post-doctoral Research Fellow Level 2 (Passive Seismic Geophysical Methods) within UCD School of Civil Engineering.
We wish to appoint an experienced Post-Doctoral Researcher with a strong background in engineering seismology, with expertise on the use of passive seismic methods, ideally with a focus on near-surface geotechnical applications. The successful candidate will work on the GEOMETRIC (GEOphysics and Machine learning for Evaluating Transportation Infrastructure Condition) project (https://www.sfi.ie/challenges/sustainable-communities-challenge/GEOMETRIC/). This project is funded by Research Ireland, under the National Challenge Fund Programme. The overall aim of the project is to develop an approach using Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) of fibre-optic cables to enable real-time monitoring of transport infrastructure slopes.
PD2 Salary: €53,770 - €56,855 Per Annum. Appointment on the above range will be dependent on qualifications and experience.
Closing date: 12:00 noon (local Irish time) on the 22nd of April 2025. Applications must be submitted by the closing date and time specified. Any applications which are still in progress at the closing time will be cancelled automatically by the system. UCD are unable to accept late applications.
UCD do not require assistance from Recruitment Agencies. Any CVs submitted by Recruitment Agencies will be returned.
The PD2 post is intended for researchers that have completed PD1. As with the PD1, if you have already completed your PD2 stage in UCD or will soon complete a PD2, or your total Postdoctoral experience, inclusive of the duration of the advertised post, would exceed 6 years, you should not apply and should refer to Research Fellow posts instead.
Prior to application, further information (including the application procedure) should be obtained from the Work at UCD website: https://www.ucd.ie/workatucd/jobs/.
