Faculty Technology, Policy and Management’s Mission
• The Faculty of Technology, Policy and Management intends through internationally oriented education and research to make a significant contribution to sustainable solutions to complex social problems
• TPM does this by analyzing the structure and operation of technical multi-actor systems and by developing intervention strategies, practices and instruments for designing and improving systems of this kind

Typical TPM-problems (1)How can we prevent electricity liberalization from leading to widespread power failures?
Is there a relationship between the liberalization and power failures elsewhere in the world? What technological solutions and institutional arrangements are worth recommending?
7
Typical TPM-problems (2)
How can organizations seize the strategic opportunities of ICT?
What are the consequences for organizations of offering electronic services? What technology is needed and what organizational adjustments have to be made? And how can business processes be improved by telematics?

Specific Context for PhD Students in the Netherlands
• Staff member for 4 years with regular salary• Under supervision of one or two promotors and
daily supervisor• Not following courses, but conducting independent
research and completing this with a book• Transition from German style master and
apprentice system to Anglo-Saxon course system• Desire for more guidance and structure, but low
acceptance of compulsory courses
23
PhD Courses at TU-Delft
• Week of research and modeling methods in location away from the faculty building (previously Best Practices Cycle)
• Mini-defense each month lasting an hour, presentation and statements for discussion
• Demand-driven seminars, on SPSS and infrastructures
• ‘Speed-dating’ every 2 months. Students address questions to each other of whatever type they like
• Peer-groups of 4 students and 1 mentor, were they read all of each other’s work

How to invest in the quality of TPM dissertations?
A good-bye message at the occasion of our parting dean Hugo Priemus
Bauke Steenhuisen, Mónica Altamirano, Michiel Houwing and Martijn Jonker

Proposition 2Independence has an equivocal effect on quality.
27
Proposition 3Spending your time incredibly inefficient is a key driver for good dissertations.

Best Practices Cycle reformed
Block 1: Research MethodsProvide overview of research methods used in TPM andrelate them to each other. Examination through writingpaper in which students motivate the application of methods to their own research (proposal)
Block 2: Application Focus Focus at level of research programs, body of knowledge.Examination left to supervisors.
30
First Offering: Research Methods Course
• Last year, off-site Oud-Poelgeest• Well-received by Ph.D. students• Good selection of perspectives on research
methods• Design focus provided by Dan Frey, M.I.T.• Helped create a community of Ph.D. students

In development for block 2
Block 2: in development
• A senior researcher produces a list of the seminal papers in the field
• Groups of students discuss the seminal papers in the research field under guidance of a senior researcher
• Each student should produce a relevant paper that applies the discussed material to its own research thesis.
34
Other Educational Programs
• Research Schools (such as TRAIL and NIG) play a role in our PhD education program
• We want to work this in, and increase awareness of PhD for complementary educational programs
• On Demand Seminars are an opportunity for PhDs to “self organize” on topics of interest guided by internal or external lecturers
35
Design-Relevant PhD’s
• Design is an emerging issue for our PhD education. • Last year Dan Frey (visiting, MIT) chaired the
session on methods • He served as a focal point for PhD’s to
• discuss the design relevance of their planned research
• better understand expectations for design-related PhD’s
• Incorporate similar content in 2008
36
In conclusion
• Issues for PhDs are very different in the Netherlands:
1. Challenge or joy to work independently and make more choices
2. Challenge or joy to have a book published and spent 4 years on that
3. Relationship with supervisor and time spent on supervision matters
4. Desire for some supporting courses, but no wish for compulsory courses and tests
