Project Summary:

Global digital connectivity has triggered a transformation whose impact is
arguably greater than any other in the history of technologies of
communication. This project will undertake fundamental research to explore
how digital systems and networks have reshaped the way we relate to each
other and perceive ourselves, what we value, and the ways we interact with
the world around us – influencing our physical, mental and ethical
behaviours. Recent developments in AI, machine learning, visualisation,
gamification, digitisation, data curation, cybersecurity and social
robotics, among many related areas, are setting new directions for the
humanities and social sciences in the digital era.

ECU seeks a PhD candidate with the experience and skills to undertake an
original and innovative project that relates to the broad field of
communication and cultural studies with a focus on digital transformations
in contemporary global society. You will need excellent organisational
skills, capacity for high‐level independent research, knowledge of the
fast‐changing digital environment, a willingness to engage with the most
recent theory and practice in digital humanities and social sciences, and
capacity to contribute to a growing interdisciplinary program in this area
of research at ECU.
