South Coast programme, *with a focus on innovative and interdisciplinary 
Gender and Sexualities research.*

The Centre for Transforming Sexuality and Gender brings together 
researchers from across the university who are working on themes related 
to sexuality, gender and social change with a core focus on producing 
research with community partners that impacts on policy and practice.
The centre incorporates the following key research themes:
•LGBTQ Lives Research
•Sex, Sexuality and Health
•Digital Sexualities
•Precarious Genders

We are committed to cutting edge research and community  engagement. 
Many of our researchers have a shared commitment to feminist, 
post-structuralist  and queer theoretical approaches and use a variety 
of methodologies that are participatory, visual and creative.

PhD students will have access to the Cluster’s own methodological space, 
The Creative Methods Lab, brand new and beautifully designed facilities 
where researchers meet to develop and conduct research, using state-of 
the-art visual and audio recording equipment.

Applicants need to meet AHRC / ESRC eligibility criteria for funding.
