Mikko Rönkkö
Research Manager (part time)

I work as a research manager at Helsinki University of Technology, Software Business Laboratory, SBL.

Research interests

I am primarily interested in software product development. More specifically, my dissertation work examines the effect of asymmetric technical knowledge on the efficiency and effectiveness of cross functional integration in product development. Theoretical background of this research comes from sociology and social psychology. In my research I follow critical realist paradigm of social sciences. In my empirical research I use both quantitative and qualitative methods. Currently I am doing my dissertation work as a full time researcher at University of Turku. Please see my homepage at University of Turku for further information.

At SBL I work with the Oskari survey. My responsibility in the project can be characterizes as a lead researcher role. This includes managing the data collection, analyzing the data and authoring scientific papers from the results.
