Design of Organizational IT (DOIT)

Design of Organizational IT faculty group

The research performed within the DOIT group emphasizes interdisciplinary research, which focuses on qualitative studies of technologically mediated practices in organizations and every day life.

We find rich empirical studies crucial for understanding how people, organizations, and technologies are constructed and transformed. Such studies are equally important for getting to terms with broader analytical questions relating to the challenges and possibilities of living in a globalized and technologized society.

Inspired in particular by the research traditions of STS (science and technology studies) and CSCW (computer supported cooperative work) the shared emphasis of DOIT research is on the mutual shaping of culture, organizations, people, and technologies, through practices of design and use.

Currently, DOIT members are involved in research projects focusing on health care information technologies, global interaction, and technologically mediated collaboration.

DOIT arranges and participates regularly in seminars, conferences, workshops etc. For further information on actual and upcomming activities click here or enter the faculty Group Calendar to get an overall view of our activities.
