[Commlist] Funded PhD, University of Sheffield, East Asian Women's cinema.

This is a re-advert due to a project start date delay.
We are recruiting for One PhD studentship in the School of East Asian 
Studies/School of Arts, Languages and Societies, as part of a Leverhulme 
Large Grant Project entitled ‘This Woman’s  Screen Work?: Creativity, 
Care and Gender in Asian Film’.
Applications are open to students of any nationality. The scholarship 
covers the value of the UK tuition fee for 3 years of a PhD Programme 
from 2025-2028 and a stipend to support living costs. Non-UK students 
receive a partial fee waiver to the value of UK tuition fees and a 
stipend to support living cost.
This PhD position is offered as part of a Leverhulme-funded project 
entitled This Woman’s Screen Work?: Creativity, Care and Gender in Asian 
Film. ‘This Woman’s Screen Work’ looks at the careers of female 
screen-workers in Asian film and screen industries. We aim to focus on 
both day-to-day working experiences and how women navigate both local 
and global film markets and screening systems. Please note - we are not 
looking for a project which only engages with the representation of 
women on the screen.
The PhD student will develop their own strand of this project based on 
their individual linguistic and cultural expertise.
a) conduct their own research on women in the film industry of a 
specific Asian nation state. This work can be done via traditional 
written format, or in combination with doctoral-level creative outputs 
relevant to the project, such as film or creative practice as broadly 
defined. We are defining Asia in the most flexible sense and please 
email the PI should you have any questions.
b) meet the milestones laid out in Sheffield PhD project including 
confirmation review at the end of your first PhD year and undertake 
appropriate training and personal development over the duration of your PhD.
c) Present your work at an international academic conference in the 
third (and final) year of the PhD program as part of the team project panel.

The PhD candidate will be co-supervised by Professor Kate Taylor-Jones 
with input from Dr Wikanda Promkhuntong (Mahidol University, Thailand) 
and Prof Louise Wei (City University Hong Kong). A second supervisor 
will also be identified at the University of Sheffield. You will be 
expected to fully participate in training programs as required and 
engage with the wider projects activities as requested.

 Please get in touch with Kate Taylor-Jones for an informal chat about 
the post. (K.e.taylor-jones /at/ sheffield.ac.uk).
