Welcome to the Economics Platform

Economics at EIT is recruiting for two outstanding, full-time Postdoctoral Research Fellows to focus on the economic implications of AI and Robotics, under the leadership of Professor Andrew J. Scott. Successful candidates will be working on a high profile and impactful project as well as pursuing frontier research.

This is a rare opportunity to conduct rigorous economic research on AI and Robotics alongside the researchers and engineers building and using them. EIT houses frontier teams in generative biology, plant sciences, materials science, and immunology. These teams, in conjunction with a world-class AI and Robotics team, are focused on tackling some of humanity’s greatest challenges. This cross-disciplinary platform informs original research of the highest quality aimed at real world impact.

Successful candidates will work on a research agenda drawing connections between frontier developments in AI and robotics, fundamental research in economics, and growing interest from the public, governments and international organisations in understanding how these technologies will reshape the economy, labour markets, and institutions. Economics at EIT is driven by a focus on ideas and impact and successful candidates will be working on a broad-based project focused on wider impact as well as detailed foundational research.

EIT's extensive network of policymakers and leading academics ensures our work reaches those shaping the response to technological change. The Institute is well-resourced and committed to supporting ambitious, high-impact research. Whether you are building toward a faculty career, a role in policy, or a position in the private sector, these fellowships offer exceptional exposure to the people and ideas defining the field.

Positions are full-time and of one-year duration, potentially renewable for further terms, subject to performance.

Your Role:

Research will combine a broad-based focus on a range of relevant topics on the economic and social implications of AI and Robotics as well as focused deep dives on particular issues.

You will interact closely with leading academics, practitioners and policy experts and be expected to take the lead on driving research forward and coordinating with research assistants / predoctoral research fellows.

Expected outputs include academic research papers as well as wider forms of output reaching broader public and policy audiences. The environment is high performing with an emphasis on delivering output whilst building knowledge.

Potential Research topics include:

· What are the implications of AI and robotics for economic growth and what are the main mechanisms and constraints?

· How will AI and Robotics change the rate and direction of innovation and how will knowledge and human capital change?

· What are the implications for employment, labour markets, inequality and social security?

· How will AI and Robotics impact organisational structure and the nature of work and what are the implications for firms and human capital?

· How will the AI transition impact different sectors, countries and groups and what policy responses are needed?

· Will AI and Robotics lead to abundance and what implications does this have for society and humanity?

· How will AI and robotics interact with demographic changes and what are the implications for public finances?

Requirements:

The Research Assistant will support the Project Leader, Associate Professor Federico Rossi and his collaborators in the successful execution of the project “Human Capital, the Organization of Production and Economic Development”, funded by an ERC/UKRI Starting Grant 2023. The project will leverage micro-level data from multiple countries and novel theoretical frameworks to shed light on how the accumulation and utilization of different types of skills are shaped by and can facilitate the adaptation to some of the most pressing challenges faced by the global economy: population ageing, climate change, and the reallocation of workers across economic activities.

The work will involve collecting and harmonizing micro-level data from countries at different levels of development to construct novel facts on the accumulation and utilization of human skills in a variety of contexts. The Research Assistant will also collaborate on the development and estimation of theoretical models that will be used to assess the impacts of several educational and training policies on economic development. The job will involve close collaboration and frequent interactions with the Project Leader and his collaborators.

The position is particularly suitable for someone interested in pursuing a PhD in Economics or related fields. Pre-doctoral Research Assistants previously working on this project have been admitted to prestigious PhD programs at New York University and Imperial College London.

The Research Assistant will benefit from extensive mentoring from the Project Leader and his collaborators and will have the opportunity to develop several skills useful for conducting academic research.
