JAMES MARTIN INSTITUTE FOR SCIENCE AND CIVILIZATION
Saïd Business School, University of Oxford
Research Studentships
Applications for Research Studentships are invited by the James Martin
Institute for Science and Civilization at the University of Oxford's
Saïd Business School. The mission of the James Martin Institute is to
initiate and conduct research on significant issues related to science,
technology and society.
The business school continues to develop major research interests in
this field. Current topics include the social impact of new electronic
technologies, science and governance, technology and accountability,
science entrepreneurship, risk and the environment, evidence, digital
imaging, and eScience and eSocial Science. In addition to the James
Martin Institute [www.martininstitute.ox.ac.uk
<http://www.martininstitute.ox.ac.uk/> ], it is currently home to the
ESRC Science in Society programme [http://sbs-xnet.sbs.ox.ac.uk/scisoc]
and, until recently, the ESRC Virtual Society? programme
[http://virtualsociety.sbs.ox.ac.uk/intro.htm].
Applicants will have experience and/or interests in any area of the
social dimensions of science and technology, and should indicate how the
proposed area of study contributes to issues in the research literature
in science and technology studies and/or science and technology policy.
They will normally already have some social science or humanities
research training (to Masters level) and will register for a DPhil
degree. However, in exceptional circumstances, they may be admitted to
follow the MSc in Management Research in the first instance.
The studentships are to the value of full time home / EU (or overseas)
fees plus a stipend towards living costs. The studentship includes
opportunities for some teaching and research assistance.
The deadline for applications is 31st March 2004. For further
information and application forms please contact Audrey Leishman,
Research Degrees Coordinator quoting STS-2004 at
