TV PhD 2023
TV PhD is perfect for you if you are ...
- Thinking about TV being a part of your career.
- Eager to share your academic research with TV audiences.
- Keen to learn from and connect with people from all parts of the TV industry.
The TV PhD scheme is only open to PhD Students who are currently being funded by the AHRC through an AHRC Doctoral Training Partnership (DTP), Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT), or Collaborative Doctoral Partnership (CDP). The student must be within their AHRC funding period and must have the consent of their supervisor in order to apply.
A real treat. So exciting to do something outside of what we would typically do as academics. It’s a taster of the TV industry and how you would fit into the industry.
