Description

CAHSS research brings together a range of disciplines to support the development of smart, sustainable and inclusive cities. We combine architecture and design with a focus on well-being and inclusion, sustainability and energy use, and the deployment of urban analytics and modelling; and our research in this area addresses the city both locally in Edinburgh, and internationally, global south. We work closely with colleagues in Informatics, Engineering and Geosciences, and in collaboration with Glasgow University (through a joint PhD Fellowship scheme) and Heriot Watt University (through the Edinburgh Strategic Alliance).
