<DIV dir=ltr align=left><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Two fully funded building
performance simulation PhD projects are currently available at Eindhoven
University of Technology. These are part of the just started
Dutch <SPAN class=770512410-07062010>r</SPAN>esearch <SPAN
class=770512410-07062010>p</SPAN>rogramme “Climate Proof Cities” which
involves a large number of universities and research institutes. The aim of
this programme is to generate knowledge that is necessary for adapting the built
environment in order to cope with <SPAN
