We are seeking two PhD students (m/f/d) for research on gaming in mobility
In cooperation with our gamification research group at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU), CARIAD SE is seeking two PhD students (m/f/d) for research on gaming in mobility:
PhD position 1: Exploring the demographic, cultural, social, and psychological factors of gaming in mobility (m/f/d):
In this role, you will empirically investigate the demographic, cultural, social, and psychological characteristics of potential users of digital games in cars and mobility services through an international cross-sectional study. Further, the project conducts a systematic literature review and experiments to examine relevant design patterns of such solutions.

PhD position 2: My car is my studio: Motivating, designing, and understanding gameful solutions for digital content creation in mobility (m/f/d):
In this role, you will investigate how the creator economy could use cars to generate and share virtual goods (e.g. as NFTs), which socio-psychological uses and gratifications could be satisfied with digital mobility-based content creation, and how such innovation can shape the future of mobility, in-car entertainment, and value creation.
