RICC offer a PhD programme in Interdisciplinary Study of Culture. We welcome applications for doctoral dissertations on any aspect of one of the following broadly defined themes:
- Living Cosmopolitanism: Cities, Transnationalities and Migration
- Injustice, Inequality and Violence: Rethinking Materialities
- Mediating Cosmopolitanism: Film, Technology and Fantasy
- Imagining Otherness, Embodying Difference: Gender and Postcolonialism
- Genealogies of Cosmopolitanism: History, Literature and Memory
- Belonging and Exclusion: Exile, Diaspora and Cultures of Citizenship
As RICC is a Faculty-wide interdisciplinary Research Institute; we welcome applications from candidates from a wide range of disciplines in the humanities and the social sciences, and from those whose interests do not fall neatly in any one particular discipline. You will be supervised by one of the members of the Institute’s academic staff.
Phd Programmes in the Faculty of Humanities are administered through Schools. Applications to the RICC PhD Programme in the Interdisciplinary Study of Culture must be made through one of the three Faculty of Humanities schools associated with RICC: the School of Social Sciences (SOSS); the School of Arts Histories and Cultures (SAHC); or the School of Languages, Linguistics and Cultures (SLLC). The choice of school will depend on your supervisor at RICC and your research topic.
