[ecrea] Sussex Humanities Lab Doctoral Research Scholarships (2015)

*Sussex Humanities Lab Doctoral Research Scholarships (2015) -
University of Sussex*

The Sussex Humanities Lab at the University of Sussex is pleased to
invite applications to study for a PhD. We are offering 4 Home/EU
fully funded scholarships and 1 International fully funded scholarship
OR 5 Home/EU fully funded scholarships depending on the applicants.

The Humanities demand re-invention. Digital transformation means the
objects of humanist study have changed. This project and programme of
activities is designed to develop critiques, methodologies, and tools
ensuring this field is fit for the future. As our culture is re-born
digital, old divisions that marked out criticism from history, music
from paint, image from text, object from performance, have become
increasingly archaic - legacies of the technologies of print and the
medieval university. When all the forms of cultural production flow
through the digital, the boundaries between them are reconfigured. This
reality calls for us to re-imagine the humanities, and to build fields
of study that transcend the computational and the aesthetic, informed by
new digital objects of study, rather than by inherited disciplinary silos.

We welcome applicants with humanities and computational specialisms and
anticipate cross-school supervision teams.

Successful international applicants to either School of Media, Film and
Music, the School of History, Art History and Philosophy or the
School of Education and Social Work will be eligible to compete for a
Sussex Humanities Lab scholarship.
