Ges Rosenberg

Dr. Ges Rosenberg is a Research Fellow at the University of Bristol's School of Electrical, Electronic and Mechanical Engineering. With qualifications including a BEng, PG Dip(Lond.), and PhD(Bristol), their expertise focuses on applying systems thinking and engineering to address complex sociotechnical and environmental challenges, particularly in sustainable cities, infrastructure resilience, and urban development. Their work emphasizes interdisciplinary collaboration, co-production methodologies, and policy design for net-zero transitions and decarbonisation.

Education:

• BEng (undergraduate degree)
• PG Dip (London-based postgraduate diploma)
• PhD from the University of Bristol

Research interests span systems engineering, urban futures, sustainable development, and the integration of technology with socio-technical systems. Key themes include resilience planning, equitable urban development, and the application of systems science to global challenges like climate change and pandemic risk. Recent projects include the DECIDE decision support system for urban planning and the TRUUD consortium tackling unhealthy urban development.

Publications highlight innovative frameworks for stakeholder engagement, infrastructure interdependencies, and digital strategies for smarter cities. Collaborations with academics like Dr. Paul Harper and Emeritus Professor Colin Taylor underscore their interdisciplinary approach to complex problem-solving. Their work bridges academic research with real-world policy and infrastructure interventions.
