About this position

This doctoral studentship is based at the Department of Informatics and Media at Uppsala University, within the field of Media and Communication Studies. The department highlights a broad and interdisciplinary research environment that connects media and communication with information systems and interaction design, and the advertised project sits squarely within that critical and contemporary research profile.

The PhD student will join AI Confidential: Emerging Forms of AI Chatbot Use for Emotional Support and Personal Well-being Among Young Swedes, a project funded by the Swedish Research Council. The project investigates how young people aged 15–18 interpret and relate to AI as a conversational partner in personal areas of life, and how this development intersects with the experiences and challenges of traditional healthcare providers.

The doctoral student is expected to plan and carry out empirical studies as part of the project, working closely with the research team and building on an existing collaboration with Youth Guidance Centres in Sweden’s Västmanland Region. The post offers participation in seminar activities, workshops, conferences, and other department research events, with additional duties such as teaching and research administration possible within the employment.

The project is led by Matilda Tudor and co-led by Lina Eklund. Their research profiles are described as spanning critical digital media studies and everyday automation, and the position is embedded in a collaborative international research environment at Uppsala University.

Funding details

Fully funded doctoral studentship; 100% employment; four years of full-time study.

The ideal candidate has a strong interest in young people’s living conditions and new technologies, documented research-related experience in Media and Communication Studies (for example a Master’s thesis), documented experience with interview methods and/or surveys, and the ability to conduct qualitative research interviews in Swedish.
