The Department of Journalism and Media Studies (IJM) offers a 3-year PhD fellowship position. The successful applicant will enroll and participate in the doctoral program in library and information science at the Faculty of Social Sciences. She/he will also be a member of one of two research groups at IJM: INDEX or Digital Journalism. The position will be closely connected to one of two international research projects financed by The Norwegian Research Council:
The PhD project is to be designed and conducted in a way that contributes significantly to the project that the successful candidate will be a part of. Applications can either be directed to the U-YouPa or the Scam project (see descriptions below). The applications will be ranked by an external evaluation committee. The position will fall to the applicant with the top-ranked application, given that - after an interview round with the person and the other leading candidates - the candidate is found to be best suited to fill the position.
The research project U-YouPa
U-YouPa will develop methods and concepts that contribute to increased understanding of potential participatory media spaces for intercultural dialogue among young people. Young people with different sociocultural backgrounds will participate in data gathering, interpretation of findings and creation of ethical recommendations that enable and encourage intercultural dialogue. The project will provide an understanding of how technology is interwoven in daily activities of young people. It focuses on their political and intercultural dialogue activities - what activities they initiate, observe and participate in. The research design is expected to contribute significantly to knowledge about digital media ethics, and capacities that facilitate intercultural dialogue.
Key research questions are:
For more information on the U-YouPa project, contact PI Harald Hornmoen (see contact details below).
The research project SCAM
The Source Criticism And Mediated Disinformation (SCAM) project will develop new knowledge and methods suited to detect and counter the diffusion of disinformation in democratic societies. Disinformation, such as fake news, conspiracy theories, propaganda and media manipulation, has surfaced as a key democratic challenge in recent years, owing to
diverse sociopolitical, economic and especially technological developments. The SCAM project will identify the main challenges related to the ways in which technology and platforms affect the distribution of disinformation in public spheres and ways to detect and counter it, specifically during periods of elections; and it will provide cutting-edge knowledge and practical methods for Digital Source Criticism in journalism in particular and media and information literacy in general.
