Net Zero Transition PhD Researcher
4 weeks ago
PhD Scholarship in Sustainability Transitions
This PhD scholarship opportunity is available at Monash University, a world-leading institution in sustainability research. The successful candidate will contribute to addressing the crucial gap in policy evaluation models by developing a system dynamics model that incorporates net zero technologies and social and political drivers.
About the Project
Reaching net zero greenhouse gas emissions requires the rapid adoption of new technologies and practices. However, policy support has faced setbacks and delays in Australia due to political resistance and low social acceptance. This PhD project will guide policymakers to design better strategies to overcome barriers, build momentum for change, and accelerate adoption of net zero solutions.
Opportunity and Supervisory Team
The 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.
Desired Student Skillset
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 Requirements
This opportunity is available to domestic students only. Candidates will need to fulfil the Monash University minimum requirements for admission to a PhD.
How to Apply
Please apply using the following link: [insert link]. To express your interest in this scholarship and PhD research opportunity, we request candidates provide a cover letter, CV, and academic transcript(s).
