The Institute of Social Ecology (SEC) at BOKU University, Vienna, announces a postdoctoral
researcher position in the field of advanced socio-metabolic modelling of stocks and flows
associated with global production-consumption networks. This position is part of the ‘Emerging
Fields’ project ‘Resilience and Malleability of Social Metabolism’ (REMASS), a 5-year
collaboration among six leading Austrian research institutions, funded by the Austrian Science
Fund. REMASS aims to investigate the resilience and malleability of social metabolism in the
face of global supply chain disruptions, caused by factors such as wars, conflicts, and climate
extremes that affect resource use, inequality, and social well-being.
If you are passionate about advancing socio-metabolic research in global supply chain
assessments and sustainability, we invite you to apply. Please send your application, including
your CV, a cover letter explaining your motivation for this position, university grades and
certificates, examples of your work (e.g., PYTHON scripts, your GitHub account, Zenodo
archives, a scientific manuscript), and contact information for two references to Prof. Helmut
Haberl (helmut.haberl@boku.ac.at) until May 19th, 2025 at the latest.
