Interdisciplinary PhD Studentship in Digital Humanities
Open University - Faculty of Arts

Digital Humanities at The Open University is a rapidly growing area of
research. The proposed studentship is aimed at exploring the application
of geographical concepts to research in the Arts and Humanities, and the
ways in which they are represented, in the digital medium. We would
welcome applications from candidates with an appropriate research
proposal in any discipline studied in The Open University Faculty of
Arts, ie Art History, Classical Studies, English, History, Music,
Philosophy and Religious Studies.

Projects which will benefit from supervision across traditional
disciplinary boundaries are particularly encouraged. Also encouraged are
proposals with links to one of our existing research groups or
collaborative projects.
