Vodafone Surrey Scholar (Ref: 2812/cs)
Salary: £25,213 per annum
The University of Surrey's Digital World Research Centre is delighted to
announce that Vodafone, the world's largest mobile network operator, is to
fund a Vodafone Surrey Scholar for three years. Surrey Scholarships are
awarded to ambitious researchers with at least three or four yearsı
postdoctoral experience, a rapidly increasing publication record, and a
demonstrated ability to work with commercial sponsors. The scholar will lead
investigations into the social shaping of mobile technologies and services.
Their work will push back the boundaries of social scientific research in
this area and guide Vodafone towards producing successful third generation
services and technologies. The researcher will be familiar with qualitative
sociology or psychology, CSCW, HCI and related disciplines.
All DWRC researchers will be expected to work flexibly and as part of
interdisciplinary teams. The DWRC is self-funded and is supported through
ESRC, EPSRC, DTI and EU grants. It also has fourteen commercial sponsors.
