Project success within the measure "Disruption and Societal Change" (TUDiSC)
As part of the TUDiSC program (funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the Free State of Saxony as part of the federal and state excellence strategy), the project "Disrupt!Research. Dynamic Collaboration under Conditions of Disruption" has received a funding commitment. The project, applied for and conducted by Dr. Solvejg Nitzke (Chair of Media Studies and Modern German Literature), Dr. Martina Pieperhoff (Chair of Entrepreneurship and Innovation) and Prof. Dr. Jens Krzywinski (Chair of Industrial Design Engineering), will be funded for 36 months and will start in October 2021.
About "Disrupt!Research. Dynamic Collaboration under Conditions of Disruption":
Disrupt!Research is an exploratory project that investigates science communication under the conditions of disruption in order to develop and test formats of interdisciplinary collaboration within and beyond the university. We aim to conceptualize and explore disruptivity as an integral part of communication in and about the sciences and humanities. To reach these goals, Disrupt! Research connects three disciplines: Literary and Cultural Studies, Design, as well as Social and Economic Sciences. The project is based on the assumption that scientific communication (internal, interdisciplinary and public) is a central arena of disruptivity, where conflicting interests, objects and spaces of research and communication could realize their disruptive potential at any time. However, disruption is not only present as a destructive element in the constellations we investigate. Instead, they reveal productive potentials for innovative collaboration.
The subproject "Network-theoretical consideration of disruption potentials" (head: Dr. Martina Pieperhoff) focuses on how interorganizational networks are arranged and organized and to what extent individual actors have potential for disruption. The investigation of potentials of disruptive possibilities, as well as the decoding of individual and organizational processes is the focus of this subproject, which is located at the Chair of Entrepreneurship and Innovation.
Job position within the subproject:
Within the framework of this subproject, a position as research associate (doctoral candidate) with 65% of the usual employment level for 36 months is available as of 01.10.2021. Applications are welcome until 13.07.2021.
