Summary, in English
Understanding and addressing the complex societal sustainability challenges requires applying novel approaches, devising innovative assessment frameworks, and adopting methods and tools from other research fields. Dr Jagdeep Singh has been conducting inter- and trans-disciplinary research on these challenges impacting academia and society. He has pursued university degrees in Electrical Engineering (Bachelor of Technology), Energy Studies (Master of Technology), and Industrial Ecology (Licentiate and Doctor of Philosophy). Before beginning his research journey into the field of sustainability science, he also worked as a Maintenance Engineer in a manufacturing plant and as a university lecturer on subjects such as microprocessor 8085 and Electromagnetic Field Theory. However, he believes his previous education and job experiences have constantly enriched this journey, allowing metacognition and deep learning about societal sustainability challenges. In this chapter, he introduces his educational and research journey so far and highlights some of the critical moments and decisions undertaken that helped him in this journey.
