Sara Roth

PhD student, on parental leave

Sara is an industrial PhD student at Sweden Water Research, NSVA and Lund University. Her research is in the field of climate adaptation of the pipe network.

Sara has a degree as a Civil Engineer within ecosystem engineering from Lund University of Technology, with a focus on water resource management. She had an early interest in urban stormwater and did her masters thesis work with VA SYD’s initiative Plats för vattnet, where she wrote a report for VA teknik Södra. Sara wrote her thesis on the combined effects of climate change on the Ståstorpsån in Trelleborg, which is a basis for the doctoral project she has now started.

Before her doctoral position, Sara worked as a consultant in stormwater, and is now looking forward to delving more deeply into development issues.

Sara is on parental leave until January 2026.
