He holds a PhD in Physics from the Technical University of Dresden, Germany. He previously worked as Researcher at the Max Planck Institute for the Physics of Complex Systems, Dresden, Germany; as Research Fellow at the Nottingham University Business School, UK and Lecturer at the Essex Business School, UK. TeachingPostgraduate: BUSM014: Quantitative Research Methods BUSM131: Masterclass in Business Analytics He is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy. ResearchResearch Interests:Guven conducts interdisciplinary research on complex systems, investigating the stability and resilience of supply networks, international business networks, and ecological networks; the effectiveness of supplier development programs; and the co-evolution of the network structure and contact processes. He uses methods from complex networks, dynamical systems theory, operations research, and game theory.
