Denmark : PhD scholarship in the field of IT Management

Sponsored Links
Copenhagen Business School invites applications for a vacant PhD scholarship within the field of IT Management.
CBS has restructured and strengthened its IT research and education into a newly formed department named IT Management. The Department of IT Management conducts research within the following areas relating to IT and Information Systems:
  • Design
  • Implementation
  • Use and exploitation
  • Information Management
The faculty and administrative staff of the department primarily teach within the following degree programs: Bachelor in Business Administration and Information Systems, Bachelor in Information Management, MSc in Business Administration and Information Systems and the MSc in IT (eBusiness).
The adoption and use of social media and social software is gaining momentum in businesses worldwide. The real business value of these social computing technologies is that they can be used as enablers for networking, participation, sharing of knowledge and ideas, promotion of discussions, new communication flows, collaboration and co-creation. The right combination of technology, leadership, readiness and culture is expected to provide employees with the opportunity to work in ways that improve and amplify individual as well as collective ideas and contributions. Whereas some of the immediate business opportunities seem obvious, only few understand or investigate the pitfalls and challenges that social media and social software imply for organizations and business leaders. It is also relevant to look into the operational issues and managerial aspects of social media and social software by asking what capabilities, structures or methods are needed for organizations to gain benefits from these technologies.
The PhD scholar is expected to conceptualize the linkages that exist between social computing technologies and the operational issues and managerial challenges that are implied in their adoption, use, and benefit realization in organizational settings. Examples of research topics that the scholarship would cover include, but are not limited to, the following:
· Design, implement, and evaluate the efficacy and impact of visual analytics solutions based on social computing metrics and key performance indicators for managers in public as well as private sectors.

· Investigate the operational issues and managerial challenges related to the adoption and use of social media and social software in organizations.

· Analyze emergent and novel ways of collaboration among employees, partners, customers and prospects through the use of social media and social software to transform the business and drive business results.

The Department will give priority to applicants with high grades from their universities.
The three-year PhD programme at CBS allows you to conduct research under the supervision of CBS professors, supported by research training courses. The programme is highly international, and you are expected to participate in international research conferences and to spend time abroad as a visiting PhD student. See the CBS homepage for more information about the PhD programme, http://uk.cbs.dk/phd .
It is also required that the applicant shows an interest in joining the Department’s research environment, see http://uk.cbs.dk/itm.
CBS PhD graduates are held in high esteem not only in academia and research institutions but also in government and business where their research qualifications are increasingly demanded. One third of CBS PhD graduates go on to employment outside universities and public research institutions.
Copenhagen Business School has a broad commitment to the excellence, distinctiveness and relevance of its teaching and research programmes. Candidates who wish to join us should demonstrate enthusiasm for working in an organisation of this type (highlighting, for example, relevant business, educational and dissemination activities).
For further information please contact: Head of Department and Professor Jan Damsgaard, tel.: +45-2479-4309, e-mail: jd.itm@cbs.dk. Information about the department may be found at http://uk.cbs.dk/itm.
