        Subject: Open position: 4 year PhD in Technoscience, Materiality, & Digital Cultures at the University of Vienna

We are looking for someone to take up a 4 year position as a PhD
student (a 30 hour per week prae-doc university assistant, in the
Austrian system), supervised by me (Sarah Davies
<https://sts.univie.ac.at/en/about-us/scientific-staff/wissenschaftliche-
ma/sarah-davies/user/daviess4/inum/1129/backpid/203353/>)
at the Department of Science and Technology Studies, University of
Vienna <https://sts.univie.ac.at/en/>. Your planned research should fall
under the theme ’Technosciences, materiality, and digital cultures’, and
should explore aspects of the digital as material practice in contexts
where technoscience is created or negotiated. The anticipated start
date is October 2024, and you must have a completed Masters degree by
this point. The deadline for applications is 30th April. 

The successful candidate will work on a PhD dissertation, participate in
research activities of the group and department, and contribute to the
organisation of the department and its teaching. For further details
see the full job advertisement
<https://jobs.univie.ac.at/job/University-assistant-(praedoc)/1053687401/>,
which also explains how to apply (requested material includes a CV,
motivation letter, 3-5 page outline of your proposed project, and 5 key
references that you think should be covered in an introductory STS course).

I believe that we offer a healthy and supportive research culture, a
lively and international STS environment, and a commitment to
supervision that helps you realise your research. Please feel free to
contact me with any informal enquiries (though apologies in advance that
I am travelling until 14th April, and may be slow in responding).

Please circulate to any colleagues or students who may be interested in
working with us!
Sarah
