Dear students,

The Institute for Strategy, Technology and Organization is currently looking for students who want to write their bachelor or master thesis at our institute with a focus on innovation. Your thesis may relate to how individuals or organizations create and capture value through innovation in the digital age.

Research areas can include, but are not limited to the following three interrelated areas: 

1.  The paradigm shift towards open, user-centered and democratized innovation processes.

2. The role of digital technologies such as artificial intelligence and/or machine learning for innovation processes: what role may such digital technologies play independently or in collaboration with human intelligence in different phases of the innovation process such as need recognition, ideation, evaluation & testing, development, and diffusion.

3. New forms of organizing innovation allowing organizations to rapidly adapt in highly dynamic and uncertain environments.

 

If you are interested in one of these areas please shortly draft on 2-3 pages an outline/essay along the lines given here and send this per email to Christopher.Lettl(at)wu.ac.at
