Final theses

The Research Field of Work, Inclusion & Technology offers theses in four subject areas:

You can see a Venn diagram with three overlapping green circles. In the “Work research” circle, the sub-items “New ways of working”, “Organizational processes (e.g. recruiting) and ”Invisible work" are listed. The sub-items “Occupational rehabilitation”, ‘Transitions’ and “(Digital) skills” are listed in the “Rehabilitation sciences” group. The sub-items “Workarounds”, ‘CSCW’ and “(beyond) Indendenden use” are listed in the “Human-technology interaction” group. The overlapping area between work research and rehabilitation sciences was called “professional participation”, between rehabilitation sciences and human-technology interaction “inclusive technology design” and between work research and human-technology interaction “sociotechnical work systems”. The middle area, which belongs to all three areas, was titled “inclusive work systems”.

In addition, Dr. Claudia Gottwald offers topics in the field of disability in a cultural, social and historical context. These include current ethical issues, debates and problems, as well as cultural and historical perspectives on concepts of disability and images of humanity.
