Department of Psychology
University of Portsmouth
PhD Bursary
An industrially sponsored Bursary for a UK/EU student is available in
the Department, covering the cost of fees, research expenses and
maintenance (£9,300).
This is an exciting opportunity to carry out research looking at peoples
behaviour when interacting with mobile phone services. The aim of this
research work will be to investigate, through a series of experiments, to
what extent and in what ways metaphors help users interact with voice-
based mobile phone services.
You should be well qualified with a good first degree in psychology,
human-factors or a related discipline. Knowledge and experience of
usability assessment techniques, user-centred design and data analysis
would be an advantage.
For an informal discussion about the studentship please contact Dr
Steve Love ([log in to unmask]).
Application forms and further details can be obtained from the
Postgraduate Secretary, Bernadette Hynes, Department of Psychology,
University of Portsmouth, King Henry Building, Portsmouth PO1 2DY
