Last month I blogged that the Centre for Social Informatics had been successful in winning a grant from the AHRC to be led by my colleague Dr Alistair Duff, and that soon we would be advertising two positions associated with this new project to start in May 2013 or soon after. The details of the first of these – a three year fully-funded PhD studentship in census informatics, ethics and policy – are now available.

The advertisement can be found at at jobs.ac.uk, and applications made online from the Edinburgh Napier vacancies web site. The closing date for applications is Friday 22nd February 2013.

Informal enquiries about the studentship can be made to my colleague Dr Alistair Duff, e-mail a.duff@napier.ac.uk, telephone 0131 455 6163.
