Mr Andrew Jewitt BSc, MSc
Postgraduate research student
Mr Andrew Jewitt is a Postgraduate research student within the Centre of Excellence for Intelligent & Resilient Ocean Engineering – Royal Academy of Engineering Chair in Emerging Technologies at the University of Southampton. Andrew is supervised across the Infrastructure Group within the School of Engineering and the Geology and Geophysics Group within the School of Ocean and Earth Science.
My research investigates the potential of geophysical data to inform engineering design through the derivation of geotechnical parameters from seismic data.
My current research is investigating how informative geophysical data can be and will explore the potential of using geophysical data to inform engineering design through the derivation of geotechnical parameters from seismic data. My work forms part of the activities of the Royal Academy of Engineering Chair in Emerging Technologies in Intelligent & Resilient Ocean Engineering.
My research is multi-disciplinary and I am supervised by Prof Susan Gourvenec in Engineering and Profs Tim Henstock and Justin Dix in Ocean and Earth Science. I am also co-supervised by Dr Mark Vardy, Director and Head of R&D at SAND Geophysics.
I graduated from the University of Hull in 2018 where I obtained a BSc honours degree in Geology. In 2019-2020 I studied a Master’s in Exploration Geophysics at the University of Leeds where my thesis was titled “Implementing interpolation algorithms to improve near surface reflections”.
