The Science Policy Research Unit (SPRU), within the University of Sussex Business School, is seeking to appoint a Research Fellow and 2 PhD students to work with me on my new ERC project EMPOCI on ‘Governing sustainable energy-mobility transitions: multi-level policy mixes, transformative capacities and low-carbon innovations’. EMPOCI will investigate how low-carbon transitions can be accelerated in the increasingly interconnected energy and mobility systems, comparatively analysing developments in China, the US, the UK and Germany. All three posts are based at the Science Policy Research Unit (SPRU) at the University of Sussex in Brighton, UK (apart from the second year, during which my team will be away for field work):

• 1 Postdoc position: 5 years, full-time, looking for a candidate with expertise in the politics of transitions, quantitative methods, and mobility system: https://www.sussex.ac.uk/about/jobs/research-fellow-governing-energy-mobility-ref-3030
• 2 PhD studentships: 3.5 years, fully funded (incl. for international students), looking for excellent MSc graduates in the social sciences, interested in politics and policies of accelerating energy-mobility transitions: https://www.sussex.ac.uk/study/fees-funding/phd-funding/view/1150-3-5-years-PhD-fully-funded-studentship-offered-by-SPRU-within-the-European-Research-Council-ERC-project-EMPOCI
