Babajide Owoyele PhD-onderzoeker

Babajide joined DRIFT in February 2021 as a doctoral candidate on the topic “Leveraging Design Science and Multimodal Data to Map Logic Plurality and Interconnectedness in Multiactor Constellations”. His work explores the potential of machine learning, natural language processing, data mining, information retrieval, and Big Data in augmenting current transition (action) research on agency. Babajide is also supervised by Prof Gerard de Melo at the Deep Data Lab at the Hasso Plattner Institute, University of Potsdam.

He completed his Master’s degree in Global Production Engineering (Solar Technology) from Technical University Berlin in 2017. In parallel, he gained a degree program on Climate Knowledge and Systemic Innovation at the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT). As a product engineer, he has also worked in research positions at Wuppertal Institute, ESA BIC. In addition, Babajide graduated from Covenant University, Ota in Nigeria, with a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering.

His geeky hobby is in making a Bootcamp out of anything and everything. He plays football and tennis when he is not watching high-performing team videos or hacking African food recipes.
