The scholarship is funded to support a full-time Ph.D. student who is commencing research in cultural studies, media and communication studies, or a cognate discipline.
The successful applicant will work with researchers Dr. Michelle Phillipov (University of Adelaide) and Professor Susan Luckman (University of South Australia) to develop their independent research project on a subject of relevance to the study.
Applications are especially welcome from qualified applicants interested in researching the role of small-scale and artisanal production in tourism and place-branding in regional economies (especially South Australia, Victoria, and/or Tasmania), or those interested in critical analysis of the recent history of ‘buy Australia’ or ‘Australian made’ marketing campaigns.
