Key research areas

Artificial Intelligence for wellbeing & sustainability

Our research aims to harness the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to improve the well-being of individuals and communities while promoting sustainable practices. We investigate the development of AI algorithms, models, and systems for applications such as personalized education, attainment of flow states, improvement of cognitive skills, and human-AI supportive interaction. In the area of human-AI supportive interaction we investigate building cognitive systems that support various skills of the human mind, including creative problem-solving and tangible and visual forms of cognition.

Building sustainable products

Our research group focuses on developing sustainable products and technologies that minimize environmental impact and promote sustainable practices throughout the product lifecycle. This includes research on eco-design and more than human perspective taking in building products. We aim to create methods for building innovative products that are environmentally friendly, economically viable, and socially responsible.

Entrepreneurship & leadership for sustainability

Our research group investigates the role of entrepreneurship in promoting sustainability and creating positive social and environmental impact. We explore how entrepreneurship can drive innovation, create new business models, and address global sustainability challenges. Our research also focuses on social entrepreneurship, sustainable business strategies, and policy interventions to foster an entrepreneurial ecosystem that promotes sustainability-oriented ventures and solutions. This direction will be further defined with the new professors to include theory of change topics.

Recent research highlights

Lifelong competency learning

Development of competency metrics to dynamically reflect acquired educational outcomes in students’ lifelong learning.

Learning & happiness

Development of a computational model for predicting personality impact and study styles on flow states of students for enjoyable learning.

Personalized learning paths

Development of AI models for personalizing the best paths of study for students, based on their personality profile, life risk factors, and existing competencies.

More than human perspective taking

Design and prototyping a more-than-human perspective taking a product development approach, so that the “voices” of different entities are heard and we ensure sustainable design.

Lifted up by the community

Explorations in improving joy of learning and flow through special moments in community touch-points.

Learners taking ownership

Towards a Collective Distributed Learning Model.
