Master Thesis Student with the possibility of a 12 months Internship
Core
Build automated 3D groundwater models to predict contaminant (PFAS) transport across soil-bedrock boundaries for urban construction sites.
Role type
Master Thesis Student (Hydrogeology/Environmental Engineering)
Builds
Production groundwater flow and contaminant transport models
Domain
Civil Engineering / Environmental Engineering / Hydrogeology
Deliverable
production ML models | dashboards & analysis
Required skills
Python, MODFLOW-6, MT3D, hydrogeological data analysis, sensitivity analysis
Preferred skills
FloPy, GIS, grouting/containment barrier design
Responsibilities
Compile and analyse hydrogeological field data (core logs, pumping tests, SGU bedrock maps); Simulate PFAS movement across horizontal and vertical soil–bedrock boundaries; Perform sensitivity analysis to evaluate fracture distribution and soil depth effects; Test model outputs against real field monitoring data.
