Scholarship Description: The School of Resource and Environmental Management at Simon Fraser
University seeks to fill a post-doctoral position in the Energy and Materials
Research Group (EMRG), specializing in the social, technical and policy aspects
of sustainable energy systems. The School of Resource and Environmental
Management at Simon Fraser University (Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada) is a
dynamic graduate school in which both social and natural scientists apply
multi-disciplinary app roaches to research in resource and environmental
management. The School seeks to fill a post-doctoral position in the Energy and
Materials Research Group (EMRG), specializing in the social, technical and
policy aspects of sustainable energy systems. The successful applicant will
work on a variety of projects with Dr. Jonn Axsen, potentially including (but
not limited to) consumer perceptions and valuation of alternative fuel and
plug-in electric vehicles, citizen acceptance of large-scale energy projects,
social influence and adoption of low-carbon energy technologies, and modeling
the social impacts of environmental and climate policies.
