Postdoctoral Researcher at University College Dublin: Assessing and Explaining Environmental and Energy Policies in Comparative Perspective
In my project “Assessing and Explaining Environmental and Energy Policies in Comparative Perspective” at University College Dublin, funded by the All Island Science Foundation Ireland (SFI) Strategic Partnership Programme, I am seeking to fill a position as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow for 2.75 years (33 months).
The position commences in January 2023 and does not involve mandatory teaching or administrative tasks. The salary ranges from €39,522 to €45,610 gross per year (dependent on qualifications and experience).
The application deadline is 08 September 2022.

I strongly encourage applications from scholars interested in party competition, environmental politics, or quantitative text analysis.
About the project
The project “Assessing and Explaining Environmental and Energy Policies in Comparative Perspective” seeks to identify the problems political actors raise and the solutions they offer regarding renewable energy, sustainability, and water treatment. The project will also assess how companies and interest groups aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and help mitigate the impacts of climate change. By combining quantitative text analysis, human coding, and supervised machine learning, it will define and map (proposed) policies relating to the environment and sustainability and provide recommendations for policymakers.
The postdoctoral research fellow will be involved in NexSys (Next Generation Energy Systems) and the Connected_Politics Lab, an interdisciplinary hub for researchers using computational methods to study politics and society.

About NexSys
The decarbonisation of the Energy System will play a vital role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and help mitigate the impacts of Climate Change. The technical and societal challenges inherent in decarbonisation are enduring challenges of the mid-21st century and will require a whole of society approach, encompassing academia, industry, government, and citizens.
NexSys (https://www.nexsys-energy.ie/about/) is a newly established All Island SFI Strategic Partnership Programme focused on transitioning to a net zero-carbon energy system. It is a unique partnership bringing together a multidisciplinary research team, industry, and policymakers to tackle fundamental research questions to be addressed as part of the transition to net Zero. NexSys brings together academics from nine institutions across the Island of Ireland (University College Dublin, Trinity College Dublin, Dublin City University, ESRI, Maynooth University, University College Cork, NUI Galway, Ulster University, and Queen’s University Belfast) to work together to meet the unprecedented scale and complexity of the challenges associated with the energy transition.
