[ecrea] Postdoc and PhD Studentships - Karlstad University

Wed May 21 11:00:05 GMT 2014


Postdoctoral and PhD studentship opportunities in Media and Communication, Karlstad University, Sweden

Media and Communication at Karlstad University, Sweden
Karlstad University has around 16,000 students and 1,200 members of staff. Media and Communication is part of the Department of Geography, Media and Communication (which also includes Film Studies) and offers a vibrant and diverse research environment. Several members of our academic staff are internationally recognized and most staff members are research active. Researchers in the department have extensive experience of publishing in international peer-reviewed journals and of attracting external research funding. Research in the department is conducted within two core, overarching areas: Media, Democracy and Citizenship, and Communication, Culture and Identity. Within these broader areas, researchers in the department study topics such as global media studies; journalism studies; media geography; communication for development; visual communication; popular culture; and the political economy of media and communication. The department has recently received a major grant to set up The Ander Research Centre on News and Opinion in the Digital Era (NODE), with Professor Henrik Örnebring as Director and Dr Michael Karlsson as Co-Director. Thanks to this grant, we are now able to offer a fully-funded 2-year postdoctoral position in news, public opinion, and digital media, and two fully-funded PhD studentships (full-time salaried positions for 4 years) – one linked to the NODE research centre (the proposed PhD thesis topic should be relevant to the research programme of NODE), and one open position (any PhD thesis topic in the areas of Media, Democracy and Citizenship and/or Communication, Culture and Identity).
