Available projects at ARCSHS
Project title: Understanding the sociality of young people's alcohol and other drug consumption
Description
This PhD scholarship is related to a new qualitative project funded by the Australian Research Council. We are seeking an outstanding candidate with a strong track record of academic excellence in anthropology, sociology, gender studies or other relevant discipline (for example, youth studies, science and technology studies or education). The PhD project will complement the broader study which investigates the relationship between young people’s concerns about and experiences of drug consumption and the priorities of drug education. The successful applicant will collaborate with the Project Lead of the broader study to develop a thesis project, which is able to contribute to the aims of the larger project while also reflecting the interests and aspirations of the individual. The scholarship is based at the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society – one of the Australia leading research centres investigating the social dimensions of health, gender, sexuality and consumption.
