Ph.D. scholarships - Media Arts Royal Holloway

From: Berghahn, Daniela <[email protected]>

The Department of Media Arts at Royal Holloway, University of London, is
offering three fully and partially funded Ph.D. scholarships to highly
qualified candidates. Additional funding opportunities are available to
applicants who bring match funding from an external source and for students
researching in one of Royal Holloway's prioritised research areas:
Identity, Place and Mobility; Creativity; and Society, Representation and
Cultural Memory.

Media Arts is one of the largest, top-rated departments in the UK, offering
a unique mix of film and television theory and analysis and practical media
production. We pride ourselves on the quality of our research. Over
three-quarters of our research was rated as ‘internationally excellent’ in
the last UK Research Assessment Exercise while over a quarter of our
research outputs were regarded as ‘world-leading’. With twenty full-time
academic staff we offer specialist Ph.D. supervision in a variety of
subjects, including practice-based research. Our staff are experts in the
fields of European and World cinema with particular strengths in British
and American film and television. Our practice-based programmes benefit
from close links with senior figures working in the media and creative
industries and courses.

You will find details of the research expertise of staff, the application
process and Ph.D. funding opportunities on our web pages:
