[AISWorld] PhD Studentship: Evaluation of Mobile Systems and Mobile Analytics

[David Allen [LUBS]]

PhD Studentship: Evaluation of Mobile Systems and Mobile Analytics
Applications are invited for an N8 Policing Research Partnership<http://www.n8prp.org.uk/> (N8 PRP) Collaborative PhD Scholarship in the University of Leeds. The studentship is available for students from the United Kingdom and European Union and commences 1 October 2015.
Information systems evaluation remains a 'thorny problem' for both scholarship and practice. The current generation of mobile systems in use in organisations provide particular challenges for evaluation but also provide new forms of data which can be used in the evaluation process. The research will address the evaluation of mobile information systems and the use of new forms of data in a particularly challenging context: policing in the UK. It will be based on action research cycles and located within one UK police service.
The successful applicant will be located in the AIMTech Research Centre<http://lubswww.leeds.ac.uk/aimtech/about-aimtech/> in Leeds University Business School and associated with the Centre for Criminal Justice Studies (CCJS)<http://www.law.leeds.ac.uk/research/criminal-justice-studies> in the School of Law.
