[Commlist] PhD position in Mediatization and digitalization Erasmus University Rotterdam

**

*PhD position (1.0 FTE) in Mediatization and digitalization /Online 
Communication and Identity Formation: A Study of Social Media Platforms/*//

The Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication (ESHCC) at the 
Erasmus University Rotterdam offers a PhD position that delves into 
understanding the ways in which online communication contributes to the 
construction of identities on social media platforms. Given the 
significant role that images, sound and video play in influencing how 
people perceive themselves and others, this project aims to explore 
their contributing role in identity construction. In doing so, there 
will be a particular focus on race, ethnicity, gender, and nation (and 
their intersections). Analyzing social media content along with 
complementary interviews will contribute to a more comprehensive 
understanding of how social media shape individuals’ self-conception and 
identity. As part of this position, you'll have the freedom to develop 
and pursue your own project idea in this field.

The start date of this position is 1 November 2023 and will run for a 
fixed term of 1.5 year initially, to be converted into a 4-year contract 
contingent upon a good performance. The position consists of 0.8 FTE 
research and 0.2 FTE teaching.

To apply, please send (1) your motivation letter, (2) your resume 
including publication list (if applicable), (3) a brief research project 
idea including a methodological approach of max. 400 words and (4) the 
names and contact details of two potential references (no letters of 
recommendation are required at this stage) *before 31 July 2023* via the
