A call for applications is open until 28 March 2025 for a Research Fellowship (BI) within the scope of the research project ‘Stereotomic BIM - Exploring sustainable design and construction in structural stone’ (Ref. 2023.15500.PEX), funded by the Foundation for Science and Technology, currently underway at FAUP.

As part of the research group at the CEAU's Digital Fabrication Laboratory (DFL), the main tasks to be carried out as part of the grant will be:

- Accompanying and supporting the general development of the research project ‘Stereotomic BIM - Exploring sustainable structural stone design and construction’;
- Production of UI/UX prototypes for BIM, digital geometric models and their materialisation using digital fabrication techniques;
- Preparing and publishing online content related to the project's themes.

All people of legal age with the following requirements can apply for this grant:

- Degree in Architecture;
- Be a student enrolled in a Master's degree in Architecture and/or in a non-degree course integrated in the educational project of a higher education institution, developed in association or cooperation with one or more R&D units - a requirement to be duly proven at the time of recruitment.

Preferred conditions:

- Have experience in digital geometric design of complex and parametric shapes, proven through the presentation of a portfolio;
- Ability to adapt to new digital productivity scenarios, including image processing, data processing and online publishing;
- Have experience in creating models for digital fabrication.

The work plan will be developed at FAUP and/or other locations necessary for implementation, under the scientific guidance of Pedro de Azambuja Varela, Researcher at FAUP.

The scholarship will last for six months.
