This is a … Read more

PHD POSITION ON MEASURING SOCIAL INTERACTION, PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, AND SENSE OF BELONGING IN HIGH SCHOOLS

This project aims to model the social and physical activity of high school students, measured through sensors and a smartwatch application, in relation to the social, cultural and physical environment. This will allow you to better understand the school environment and to propose interventions to make the school more inclusive. In recent work, we showed … Read more

POSTDOCTORAL POSITION ON EDUCATIONAL INNOVATION COMMUNITIES

The challenge We investigate the composition and behaviour of complex (higher) educational systems. By explaining and modelling such systems, we strive to promote a balanced improvement between the systems’ education and research outputs. This 2-year postdoctoral position is part of the NPULS-CTL project, which has the objective of improving the University of Twente’s Centre of … Read more

POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHER FOR “GRIEF IS A FAMILY AFFAIR”

The research group Psychology, Health & Technology (PHT) offers a  postdoc position focusing on gaining empirical knowledge about how grief in parents interacts with grief in their children using ecological momentary assessment (EMA). EMA, also called experience sampling, is a fine-grained longitudinal data-collection method and an ecologically valid way to measure prolonged grief in daily … Read more

PHD POSITION ON TRANSITIONING PUBLIC ORGANIZATIONS FOR FUTURE-PROOF INFRASTRUCTURE

Society is facing major challenges like circularity, digitalisation and climate adaptation. These challenges have a significant impact on our built environment and the actors that operate in this field. Addressing these challenges requires a fundamental change in how public organisations operate and coordinate themselves and their relations with private parties. This PhD project aims to … Read more

POSTDOC ON HUMAN-CENTRIC DEPLOYMENT STRATEGIES FOR TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT IN THE RAILWAY SECTOR

To meet the increasing demand for both passenger and freight transportation, the European Flagship 2 – R2DATO rail research programme leverages digitalisation and automation to develop Next Generation Trains and Infrastructure. In this context, the 1-year Postdoc project sits at the intersection of business and technology management and aims to provide design guidelines for the … Read more
