Techno Economy combines the fields of technology and economy. In this context, we understand economy to address aspects of economic and social science perspectives. Techno Economy deals with scientific research that occurs at this interface, from knowledge-based research driven by the application of economic theory to technical and scientific basic research that is of practical importance.
The interdisciplinary approach was a crucial motivating factor that encouraged me to choose this doctoral school. By following this approach, I came to recognize that the technical components of a system are not isolated from the economic and social environment, and that I needed to search for holistic, sustainable solutions. My research focuses on humanitarian supply chain management. The challenge in this area lies in the efficient design of the supply chain in a highly volatile environment.
