Jobbeskrivelse
We are seeking applicants with an ambitious research agenda within the field of Innovation and Entrepreneurship and solid educational skills in economics and business economics.
As a member of the IKE Research Group, you will join a supportive community dedicated to producing internationally recognised research. You are expected to engage actively in joint IKE-activities. The group’s primary focus is on industrial dynamics, encompassing innovation and industrial transformation, regional innovation systems, entrepreneurship, technological changes, sustainability and green transition, as well as the emergence and implications of new technologies.
The group’s research is based on diverse research methods, spanning from quantitative methods on register, survey, and patent data, to various qualitative methods; also emphasizing the interplay between qualitative and quantitative methods and data. There is a growing focus on novel computational methods such as NLP, machine learning, and AI within the group.
The members of the IKE Group contribute to teaching in industrial dynamics, innovation, entrepreneurship, and related fields at AAUBS, as well as teaching in basic and core disciplines in economics, business economics and(primarily quantitative) research methods at the bachelor, master and executive programmes offered by Aalborg University Business School.
