PhD Architecture

University of Strathclyde

We're a relatively small department but with a big heart, committed to address the big challenges in the (built) world, at all scales. Strathclyde’s reputation has always been that of a truly socially-oriented University. Our department has been at the forefront of this, from the 1970s, when it helped set up Community Based Housing Associations to help local communities regenerate their neighbourhoods whilst retaining their locale and ties. Our research portfolio is varied, covering the vast area between buildings and cities' performance analysis, assessment and design. We bring to this area a rich tapestry of specific interests and expertise, which our PhD students complement and help expand. Therefore, we're keen to receive applications from prospective students that match both our current areas and individual expertise.We're also interested in receiving proposals that bring new questions to the table.
