The Department of Film and Television Studies at Aberystwyth University

media and government sectors.

Our Department and the University have strong links with a range of

to any of our research specialisms (listed below). Scholarships are 
available to applicants living in the UK and the European Union, and 
projects will need to be supervised by relevant academic staff at two of 
the Universities in the consortium.
