About the Position

This postdoctoral position offers an excellent opportunity for an independent and motivated researcher to contribute to the analysis of Big Data for freight transport at Chalmers University of Technology. Our institution is renowned for its exceptional research and education, and we have a strong collaboration with industry and the public sector.

Research Focus

As a postdoc, you will participate in research at the Departments at Chalmers, collaborating with leading researchers focused on sustainable freight transport management and mathematical optimization modeling and methodology. You will engage with our local networks, such as the Urban Freight Platform, Northern Lead, and Chalmers Transport Area of Advance, as well as various international networks.

Responsibilities

While we currently have rich datasets in the transport area, the potential of Big Data in this field still offers many opportunities, ranging from methodological to prescriptive research. You will conduct research on the opportunities of Big Data for freight transport by developing methods of analysis, providing insights to societies, and paving the way for further research in this area.

Qualifications

We are looking for a highly motivated researcher with strong quantitative foundations who is aiming to become a consolidated researcher. You must have a doctoral degree in Industrial Engineering, Civil Engineering, Business Administration, Operations Research, Management, Economics, or similar subjects. To qualify for the position of postdoc, you must hold a doctoral degree awarded no more than three years prior to the application deadline.

Requirements

The position requires sound verbal and written communication skills in English. Swedish is not a requirement, but Chalmers offers Swedish courses. You are expected to be somewhat accustomed to teaching and to demonstrate good potential within research and education.

Contract Terms

This postdoc position is a full-time temporary employment for two/three years. Chalmers offers a cultivating and inspiring working environment in the coastal city of Gothenburg.
