The Resilience Research School
(pdf, 1 MB)
, starting in August 2009, is a cooperation between SRC and several departments at Stockholm University. PhD-students, who are accepted at a department, are welcome to apply for enrollment in The Resilience Research School and take part of its resources — supervision, work office, courses, workshops, seminars, networks, funds, etc. The Resilience Research School offers a few PhD courses on a regular basis as well as a collection of ad hoc courses.
Regular courses:
Linking resilience theory to research questions and design (January - March 2010 halftime 7,5 cr.)
This course discusses critical issues concerning resilience in
social-ecological systems. Students suggest methods and
write a research proposal.
Research on social-ecological systems (March - September 2010 halftime 7,5 cr.)
The idea of this course is learning how to do research by doing it: a research task will be performed with a group article as expected output.
Ad hoc courses (examples):
Complex Adaptive Systems (December 2009, 2 cr.)
Cross-discipline conceptual discussion on system identity, adaptive processes, feedbacks and network theory.
Innovation and transformations in social-ecological systems (April 2010, 3 cr.)
(pdf, 14 kB)
This course focuses on how to steer away from undesired regimes and transform social-ecological systems into new improved trajectories that sustain and enhance ecosystem services and human wellbeing.
