PhD Impact of Digital Technologies on Public Education (in The Netherlands) at Utrecht University Over the past two decades, Big Tech companies have steadily increased their influence over public education. This influence has become particularly evident with the rise of platforms and artificial intelligence (AI). Big Tech conglomerates are restructuring the education sector by incorporating new generative AI (GenAI) infrastructures and applications into their own educational services, while simultaneously integrating them with third-party edtech vendors. We are looking for a PhD candidate for a research project on Public education, Big Tech and AI in the Netherlands, which is part of the Spinoza-funded research programme Governing the Digital Society, chaired by Professor José van Dijck.
