About me

Malvina Roci is a researcher in Circular Manufacturing Systems at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm. Her research is focused on developing analysis methods and tools to support manufacturing industry in its transition from linear to circular manufacturing systems that are economically viable and environmentally sustainable. In particular, she employs complex  systems modelling and simulation  to capture the systemic and dynamic nature of circular manufacturing systems for enhanced decision-making.

Malvina holds a PhD in Circular Manufacturing Systems from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. Additionally, she holds a M.Sc. in Production Engineering and Management from KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden, and a B.Sc. in Industrial Engineering from Politecnico di Milano, Italy.
