Senior Researchers New Economic Framework (Digital Business & Media)
Job description
University of applied sciences Utrecht (HU UAS) teaches students to become professionals and is leader in the transition towards the New Economy. Under societal pressure, the economy is in need of renewal: from purely financial to a model that takes into account people, planet and the environment: multiple value creation. We are re-evaluating our vision of a healthy economy: from unlimited growth to a form that relates to ecological and socio-economic limits in the right way. In addition, the digital revolution requires maximum adaptability of our economy and offers opportunities to shape a new economy. These developments mean that the classic economic fields in Higher Economic Education, such as Economics, Marketing, Business Administration, Finance & Accounting, Communication, etc., will change. The question in the professional field and education is: How does our current knowledge relate to the frameworks of this New Economic perspective? And what is needed to accelerate the transition towards a new economic reality?
HU students, graduates, teachers, and researchers become co-shapers of the society of the future. To achieve this, we have developed an ambitious plan in which we will renew our education and research program within the economic domain along substantive lines. These lines go beyond the silos of classic courses, disciplines, and research areas.
