The School of the Arts, English and Drama at Loughborough University is pleased to announce a fully funded PhD studentship in Applied Storytelling Practices
The studentship will be paid for a period of up to three years, starting in October 2016, and will cover tuition fees at the UK/EU rate, and provide a tax-free stipend of 14,296 *. Overseas students may apply, but the total value of the studentship will be used to cover the International tuition fee, and the remainder will be available as a reduced stipend.
Applicants may propose projects with a focus on any mode of Storytelling (for example, live performance storytelling, Digital Storytelling, etc.), but should seek to explore how different modes of storytelling practice are/might be applied across social and policy contexts.
We are particularly interested in proposals that concentrate on issues relating to the environment, heritage, health and well-being or social justice, but we would welcome applications that address other areas as well. The successful candidate will be supervised in their research by Professor Mike Wilson and Dr Antonia Liguori.
