Personal Statement
Dr Hyoje (Jay) Kim (PhD, Queensland University of Technology) joined Strathclyde Business School in 2022. Prior to joining Strathclyde, Dr Kim worked as an advanced data analytics consultant at a marketing research firm in Australia.
As a behavioural scientist focused on social innovation, his research investigates the drivers of social problems—such as food waste, recycling, sustainability, and economic disparity—and develops and evaluates interventions to improve societal well-being and generate positive social impact. His work examines how individuals process and respond to the information they encounter in everyday life, and how decision environments can be designed to foster positive behavioural change.
Dr Kim’s research interests include social marketing, the psychology of time, self-regulation and consumer well-being. He is committed to identifying the underlying sources of social problems, designing simple but effective interventions, and demonstrating their impact in naturalistic, real-world settings.
