Media Use in the 21st Century (2 PhD scholarships)
Job
This project investigates how 21st-century media changes and challenges the social role of media by gathering detailed evidence about how Australians use media (all forms, old and new). The media available to and used by Australians are now radically different from when core theories about the role of media in society were established. We are awash in data about clicks, views, and likes, but we lack evidence about what people now do with media, how they select among many options, and what they value to understanding the roles of media in the twenty-first century. You'll receive a stipend of $37,010 per annum for a maximum duration of 3.5 years while undertaking a QUT PhD. The duration includes an extension of up to 6 months, if approved for your candidature. This is the full-time, tax‑exempt rate which will index annually. You will receive a tuition fee offset/sponsorship, covering the cost of your tuition fees for the first 4 full-time equivalent years of your doctoral studies.
