David Sjöberg serves as Associate Professor at Umeå University's Unit of Police Work, specializing in research, teaching, and pedagogical development for police and emergency response education. His work bridges academic theory with practical training methodologies for first responders.
His educational background includes a Ph.D. in Education and the Swedish Docent title, signifying advanced research competence and doctoral supervision资格.
- Ph.D. in Education
- Docent in Education
Sjöberg's research centers on simulation-based training innovations, examining psychological responses in mass casualty incidents, mixed reality applications, and informal workplace learning among police educators. He investigates how preparation phases, debriefing models, and role assignments impact practical knowledge development in vocational contexts, with strong emphasis on real-world applicability for police training.
Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals consistent focus on simulation fidelity and learning transfer in emergency response training. Recent work (2023-2025) explores mixed reality integration and psychological adaptation in mass casualty scenarios, while earlier studies examine observer roles, secondary participant learning, and virtual case effectiveness. His research demonstrates methodological diversity through qualitative analyses, comparative studies, and longitudinal assessments.
Awarded for teaching excellence, his recognitions include:
- Excellent teacher award at Umeå University
- Distinguished university teacher designation
Sjöberg secures significant research funding through projects like MELODY (2018-2022) on police learning dynamics and Safety & Security Test Arena (2016-2019) for emergency response innovation. As Docent, he supervises doctoral candidates though specific advisees aren't listed in source materials. His grants consistently target simulation technology advancement and pedagogical refinement in high-stakes vocational training.
He leads Umeå University's "Learning in police work" research profile, coordinating interdisciplinary collaboration between police educators, practitioners, and simulation specialists to develop evidence-based training protocols and evaluate learning outcomes in realistic operational environments.
