[Commlist] PhD by Prior Publication (Creative Practice) Scholarships

Val Bogan Memorial PhD Scholarship

TU Dublin is offering two scholarships to new, part-time, doctoral 
candidates in the specific area of a PhD by Prior Publication through 
creative practice. The scholarships, located in the Centre for Socially 
Engaged Practice-Based Research (SEPR; http://www.dit.ie/sepr), are 
designed for established media practitioners, visual artists, curators, 
architects and designers, wanting to engage critically with their 
exhibited works and/or written publications (4-5 in total) completed 
during the past decade.

The part-time 2-year PhD by Prior Publication through completed 
practice-based research consists of a thesis of 20-30,000 words, which 
should be comparable in terms of quality and rigour to that of the 
practice-based PhD, amounting to an original contribution to new knowledge.

This pathway affords established mid-career practitioners – some of whom 
are employed in universities in and outside Ireland – the opportunity to 
reflect theoretically and methodologically on their body of creative 
practice generated during the past decade; the practice may include any 
one or a combination of the following artefacts but not limited to: 
public exhibition and performance, curations, film screenings, 
exhibition catalogues, critical reviews, peer-reviewed papers, book 
chapters, monographs and books.
Each scholarship will take the form of an annual contribution covering 
the registration fee as follows:
•	EU students:		 €3000 per annum
•	Non-EU students:	€6,000 per annum
The successful applicants will join a cohort of doctoral scholars in 
SEPR and will benefit from participating in an established 
practice-based environment, which has pioneered a 2-year PhD by Prior 
Publication pathway in Ireland, with an emphasis on socially engaged 
practice-based research.

Interested applicants should submit an expression of interest, 
accompanied by a CV no later than February 15 to Dr Alan Grossman 
(Director of SEPR).

For informal inquiries, please contact Dr Anthony Haughey 
((anthony.haughey /at/ dit.ie)) and Dr Alan Grossman ((alan.grossman /at/ dit.ie)).
