Opis zadań:

Tasks:
The student/PhD student will take part in the project "Sense of place and mobility in cross-border contexts – essentialist and progressive perspectives" and will analyze different mobility patterns in the cross-border area. Cross border regions provide very specific mobility patterns, which include virtual mobility through communication means and social media, and corporal mobility. These movements in border regions are strongly linked to people-place connections, which can act as push and pull factors, and simultaneously be shaped by mobilities. The student’s/PhD candidate’s research will mainly contribute to a more profound understanding of different types of mobilities in a border region. The empirical research will be carried out in 4 German-Polish border towns: Frankfurt (Oder)- Slubice and Guben-Gubin, and is based on interviews and participatory mapping methods.
For more information about the project please see: https://movensense.web.leuphana.de/
The tasks of the student/PhD student in the project include:
- Collaborating in the synthesis of results about the relationship between the mobility and place-related issues with the help of statistical methods
- Collaborating with the research team to analyze the interviews and develop a typology of mobility patterns in the cross-border area
- Collaborating with the research team in the comparative analysis of qualitative findings with quantitative results and further development of the typology of mobility patterns.

What we offer:
- collaboration in young international research project
- collaboration with international network of leading researchers in the respective fields
- support in academic career
- great and dynamic team which is enthusiastic about their research topic
- openness to include your own research interests
