The Boysen-TU Dresden Research Training Group for young researchers from Engineering, Social Sciences, Arts, and Humanities, co-financed by the Friedrich and Elisabeth Boysen Foundation and the Technische Universität Dresden, is offering a doctoral scholarship from December 1, 2023, for a maximum of 3 years, subject to available funding.

Abstract: The project critically analyzes whether the impact on sustainable development, in particular on large-scale sustainability transformation, is addressed by the activities and entrepreneurial approaches such as business models of companies in the hydrogen economy.
