The team of Academician Chen Xiangsheng from the Future Underground City Research Institute of Shenzhen University is now recruiting 2 postdoctoral fellows both domestically and internationally. The specific requirements are as follows:

1、 Introduction to the Institute

The Future Underground City Research Institute (UPA) of Shenzhen University, led by Professor Chen Xiangsheng, an academician of the CAE Member, was established in 2018 by relying on the School of Civil and Traffic Engineering of Shenzhen University. The research institute adheres to the purpose of making original contributions to the construction of human ecological civilization, and is committed to the goal of protecting and building a beautiful ecological environment. It is based on exploring efficient ways of urban underground space development and land resource utilization. The Institute focuses on solving major scientific problems and technical problems in major national infrastructure construction, deeply integrates advanced technologies such as Internet plus, big data mining and advanced sensing elements with traditional geotechnical mechanics and underground structure engineering, creates modern engineering for resilient urban construction, innovates the theory and method of urban comprehensive multi compliance planning, and develops the technology of "intelligent civil engineering". Since its establishment, it has undertaken more than 200 national, provincial and ministerial projects/topics and major horizontal scientific research topics, including major projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, key projects of the National Natural Science Foundation of China, key research and development plans of the Ministry of Science and Technology and key fields of Guangdong Province, and has participated in consulting work on national key construction projects such as the Sichuan Tibet Railway, Shenzhen China Railway. In the past 3 years, we have won 2 provincial and ministerial level special awards for scientific and technological progress, 4 first prizes, and 3 international awards.
