Subject description
Maritime logistics research is dominated by the container segment and international research can often be translated into Swedish conditions. Swedish foreign trade, Swedish shipping companies and Swedish ports, however, are clearly more dependent on the RoRo and RoPax segments. The segments are also clearly contextual, with route specific vessels, competitive situation and seasonal dependencies. In addition, RoPax is a transport service with varying character of demand as both passengers and goods in various forms is transported.
The associate senior lecturer is expected to carry out society-relevant research about RoRo and RoPax shipping in a transport chain context cooperating closely with Swedish shipping companies and their customers. The focus of the research is competitiveness for companies and the traffic mode, fulfilment of UN's sustainability goals and society policy making.
The research shall contribute to the projects The role of liner shipping for robust supply chains, iHamn, DREAMIT 2.0 and similar externally funded projects.

Teaching is espected to be carried out in the bachelor programme Logistikprogrammet and in the masters programme Logistics and Transport Management.

Assessment
