About TNO's Research Programs

TNO is at the forefront of innovation in the civil engineering and construction industry, addressing major social issues such as the Paris Agreement. Our research focuses on developing and supporting innovations that enable the industry to create safe and sustainable structures for the future.

Your Role in Our Research

You will join a team of specialists investigating the behavior of innovative concrete types and structures. Your research will be part of our research programs, and you will have access to modern research facilities and an extensive network. Depending on the subject, you will choose a mentor to guide you through your graduation project.

What We Expect from You

We are looking for master students in civil engineering or architecture and built environment, preferably with an interest in concrete and/or structural mechanics. You should be open to new insights, focused on collaboration, and have an independent and critical mindset. Some examples of topics you can work on include:

  • Safety assessments for reusing prefab concrete elements
  • Effects of temperature variations on cracking behavior and shear strength capacity of complex concrete structures
  • Development of assessment models for historic steel-concrete bridge decks

What You'll Get in Return

At TNO, we value your personal and professional development. You will be properly supervised during your work placement and given the scope to excel. We provide suitable work placement compensation and opportunities for you to present and publish your research.
