Industrial Organisation and Supply Chain Management

PHD项目将研究零售商和供应商之间常见的供应链实践。利用应用博弈论和案例研究，它将试图理解这些做法对企业和市场竞争的影响。它将寻求确定这种做法在哪些条件下加强/限制竞争。这将为竞争政策制定者提供关于如何监管这些商业行为的重要见解。该项目将对工业组织、供应链管理和竞争法的活跃研究领域做出贡献。博士学位将为出版学术出版物提供巨大的潜力，并为在学术界、政府机构、行业监管机构或竞争咨询公司寻求职业生涯提供一个极好的平台。

The PhD project will examine common supply chain practices between retailers and their suppliers. Using applied game theory and case studies, it will seek to understand the effects that these practices have on businesses and market competition. It will look to identify the conditions under which such practices enhance/restrict competition. This will provide important insights for competition policymakers into how these business practices should be regulated. The project will contribute to active research areas in industrial organisation, supply chain management and competition law. The PhD will provide great potential to generate academic publications and offers an excellent platform to pursue a career working in academia, government agencies, industry regulators or competition consultancies.
