[ecrea] TECHNE PhD Scholarships, Royal Holloway, University of London

>>> The Department of Media Arts at Royal Holloway offers fully funded 
doctoral research awards for suitably qualified applicants, starting in 
September 2014. Awards will be funded through applications to our new 
AHRC backed TECHNE awards system, where Royal Holloway is a partner in a 
consortium with six other colleges and universities in London and South 
East England. £380, 000 is available for funded studentships across our 
Arts Faculty. TECHNE is working with a number of prestigious 
extra-academic institutions to enhance training and employment 
opportunities: these include the BFI, the Barbican, and the Museum of 
London.
>>>
>>> The department offers doctoral supervision in a wide range of 
specialist areas in film and television studies. We have internationally 
recognised researchers in fields such as British film and television, 
Hollywood, Asian and diasporic European cinema, avant-garde film and 
video art, documentary, cultures of celebrity and television history, 
technology and aesthetics. We also provide expert supervision of PhDs by 
Creative Practice.

should be directed to Prof. Christopher Townsend, (c.townsend /at/ rhul.ac.uk). 
We will then discuss your project and possible supervisors, prior to 
application. Applications under the TECHNE scheme will close on 19 
February 2014. We will be able to advise the result of the TECHNE 
application by 5 May 2014.
>>>
>>> Unsuccessful applicants to TECHNE will be automatically considered 
for funding by Royal Holloway Faculty bursaries. We will accept 
applications outside the TECHNE scheme after 19 February, and there will 
be some opportunities for Faculty funding for applicants missing the 
TECHNE deadline but applying before 1 April 2014.
