I’m currently looking for M.Sc. students to conduct research on the following topics: digital twins in buildings operation, artificial intelligence in design and construction, robotics in the built environment. Interested applicants should email me specifying their research interests and I will reply as soon as possible.

Usually I guide students from their research proposal to the final delivery of their thesis defense.

Being advised by me you can expect:

  • A monthly meeting to work on and go over your research proposal
  • A weekly meeting to look at and talk about your research progress once you start
  • A bi-weekly revision of any additional documents you need me to comment and/or modify (with change control)
  • Constructive comments on both your work and how you present it. I value comprehensive content, structured presentation and visualization equally.
  • A co-authored indexed journal article publication showing the valuable results of the study within the next two years
