Dear Colleagues,
The Faculty of Business at Oxford Brookes University is offering
studentships to exceptional candidates seeking to study for a full time PhD
starting in *September 2014*.
These full-time studentships, which include a commitment of seminar
teaching to undergraduate students, will be for 3 years, subject to
satisfactory progress. The bursary will be *£20,000* per annum, plus
student fees.
Applicants should have a good Honours degree as well as a good Master's
degree at merit level or above that includes a thesis component.
*Please state clearly in your application the School, cluster and research
title. *
*Cluster: The business and management application(s) of hospitality-related
practices and competencies*
We invite candidates with a strong academic grounding in social sciences to
explore the applications of hospitality-related practices within
"non-hospitality" organisational or business contexts. For example, this
could include studies examining the interactions of hospitality with
retail, events, healthcare or other service sectors (See e.g. Cavell, 2012;
Lugosi, 2014). Studies could also consider the relevance of
hospitality-related practices, for example workplace eating and drinking,
in organisations (cf. Briner & Sturdy, 2008; Lugosi, 2014). We are keen to
develop rigorous multi and inter-disciplinary work that has the potential
to make positive impacts on practice. Candidates are asked to outline in
their application the disciplinary context and academic audience(s) of
their project, the prospective contributions to specific fields of enquiry
and the potential impacts of the proposed research beyond academia.
