Global PhD Student Fellowship in Civil Engineering

In collaboration with the New York University Tandon School of Engineering, the Division of Engineering at New York University Abu Dhabi offers Global PhD Student Fellowships in Civil Engineering.

Global PhD students in Civil Engineering are enrolled at the Civil Engineering doctorate program in the Civil and Urban Engineering Department from NYU Tandon School of Engineering, and enjoy the same privileges and responsibilities as all NYU PhD students.

PhD Students in the Global PhD Student Fellowship undertake most of their coursework in New York and conduct their research in Abu Dhabi. This enables each student to engage in formative study with an entering cohort of students, and take advantage of NYU’s world-class resources.
