PhD Scholarship – Modelling Net Zero Transitions
3 weeks ago
Monash University is seeking a PhD candidate to contribute to a research project on modelling the social and political drivers of net zero transitions. The project aims to develop a system dynamics model that incorporates net zero technologies and lifestyle solutions, as well as social and political drivers and barriers to adoption.
About the ProjectThe rapid adoption of new technologies and practices is critical to reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions. However, policy support has faced setbacks and delays in Australia due to political resistance and low social acceptance. This PhD project will address this crucial gap by supporting the development of a system dynamics model that guides and enables policymakers to design better strategies to overcome barriers, build momentum for change, and accelerate adoption of net zero solutions.
Opportunity and Supervisory TeamThe PhD opportunity is based at Monash Sustainable Development Institute (MSDI) and will support a research project funded by the Australian Research Council (ARC) on modelling the technological, social and political drivers of the net zero transition. The PhD candidate will be supervised by at least two senior researchers, including Dr Cameron Allen and Dr Enayat Moallemi.
Desired Student SkillsetThe PhD project will combine established methods from system dynamics modelling and sustainability transitions research in an innovative and interdisciplinary approach. A background in science and engineering or social science and policy analysis is desirable. Experience with systems modelling and/or research on sustainability transitions and transformations will be highly regarded. Strong communication skills and the ability to work independently and as part of a team are also required.
Eligibility RequirementsThis opportunity is available to domestic students only. Candidates will need to fulfil the Monash University minimum requirements for admission to a PhD.
