Do you want to study a doctoral program that is interdisciplinary and where you as a doctoral student address issues that are relevant to both academia and industry? Then you should apply to the graduate school Technology management and economics which includes both economic, organizational and social aspects of technology and technology use.
As a doctoral student, you can also take part in areas of knowledge such as society, technology and science that are included in the scientific base. In the graduate school, the goal is to offer you as a doctoral student a good understanding of the subject through both theory and method. In Technology Management and Economics, you get to take part in studies in areas such as the role of technology for societal development and industrial renewal based on technological innovations. You will also develop knowledge about the management and organization of technology-based activities in business and the public sector. Read more in the study plan.
