Phd Position in Information Systems

3 weken geleden


Eindhoven, Nederland TU Eindhoven Voltijd

**Job description**:
The energy sector is undergoing a remarkable transformation driven by the urgency of climate change, the need for equitable energy access, and the growing prominence of information technology. This shift is paving the way for innovative energy solutions, such as peer-to-peer electricity trading platforms, which allow citizens and communities to participate directly in energy markets.

This PhD project will focus on assessing the business model and regulatory viability of these new solutions. While technical viability is important, understanding how these solutions can thrive within specific regulatory environments and business contexts is equally critical. Regional regulations have a notable impact on the roles and responsibilities of market participants, the allocation of costs and benefits, and the potential to scale benefits effectively. This PhD project will develop an instrument for exploring how regulation influences the business model structure and early project development of emerging energy solutions, moving beyond simple compliance checks.

**Topic**:
**Position**:
This PhD position is part of a collaboration between Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) and the Technical University of Denmark (DTU), funded by the Eurotech PhD program.

- You have a Master’s degree in Information Systems, Business Science, Innovation Science, Computer Science, Industrial Engineering, or a similar field of study.
- An affinity with conceptual modeling is considered as a plus.
- You have a strong affinity with interdisciplinary research that involves collaboration with industry.
- You can work on a challenging topic that has both basic and applied research aspects.
- You can implement ideas in software prototypes.
- Your verbal and written communication skills are excellent, as are your proficiency in English and your ability to collaborate in an international group.

**Conditions of employment**:
A meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting, and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station. In addition, we offer you:

- A full-time employment for four years, with an intermediate evaluation (go/no-go) after nine months and with a target start date as soon as possible. You will spend 10% of your employment on teaching tasks.
