Job description

Offer DescriptionThis project examines practice-based research (PBR) – a form of scientific research embedded in professional practice and conducted by practitioners or teams composed of researchers and practitioners. Despite the considerable potential of practice-based research to provide socially useful scientific knowledge, we still know very little about how this kind of research is conducted, in what form its results are published, and how it contributes to professional growth. Our project aims to fill this gap by providing insights about research and publication practices, and the societal impact of practice-based research. The project is based on the cooperation of researchers from three countries: Poland, Switzerland and Belgium-Flanders. The research team will perform a comprehensive bibliometric and systematic analysis of publications and conduct about 120 interviews with researchers representing various disciplines. Using machine learning methods, we will analyse descriptions of the social impact of scientific research and identify different types of practice impact of science. In addition, we will design a framework for registering non-traditional research outputs (non-academic publications and non-written outputs).Where to apply E-maileuroreg@uw.edu.plRequirementsResearch Field Sociology » Other Education Level PhD or equivalentSkills/QualificationsOnly candidates who fulfil conditions defined in Art. 113 of The Act of 20th of July 2018 – the Law on Higher Education and Science (Dz.U.2023 no. 742 with later amendments) may apply.Other requirements:
