[Commlist] PhD studentship at KCL

Critical Approaches to the History of East and Southeast Asian 
Contributions in the British Screen Industry
A Collaborative Doctoral Award with British Film Institute (BFI) and 
BEATS - a not-for-profit advocacy group for British East & South East 
Asians working in the Screen & Stage Industries.
We seek a passionate researcher/practitioner with relevant professional 
and/or lived experience to undertake a doctoral project that examines 
East and Southeast Asian (ESEA) contributions to British film and 
television, focusing on organisational and production practices, 
individual lived experiences, institutional initiatives and creative 
activism that addresses invisibility and marginalisation.

Through placement, training and mentorship by the British Film Institute 
(BFI) and British East Asians in Theatre and Screen Industries (BEATS), 
this project generates an unparallelled opportunity to analyse the 
contributions of the ESEA community to British screen through 
researching industrial practices, the roles of public media 
organisations and broadcasters, and the experiences of ESEA creatives.

Only UK based (Home Fee) applicants are eligible for this studentship.
Application deadline: 13 February 2026 - 5pm GMT
