I am full-time employed at the Dept of Applied IT at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg , Sweden. I work as a researcher (Ph.D in Informatics). My research is focused on design of information technology-use for crisis and emergency response work.
My research is design-driven and oriented on exploring new ways of designing and embedding information technology into social settings and work practices by using real-world prototypes. Sometimes are these efforts successful and therefore transformed into commercial products. (see for example LiveResponse.se).
I also enjoy teaching at two different master programs:
- IT-Management Master´s Program
Course: IT-Infrastrutures (Code: TIA008) - Master of Communication Program
Course: Communication Technology (code: TIA066)
Previous employments:
Gothenburg University
Viktoria Institute.

This blog is only presenting my personal views.
I am M B H Parvez from Bangladesh. I have just completed my Master’s in MIS. I am very much interested to built my carrier in such area.
How can I do this???
I think the best thing you can do is to contact local governmental agencies or NGOs working in the area of emergency and crisis response and start work for them in your spare time. Contact for example the Red Cross, WHO or Oxfam in the region you live and see how you could work with them.
