The University of Edinburgh's School of Social and Political Science is offering three fully funded PhD scholarships for the project 'WARSHARE: The New War Front: Digital Participation in War.' Led by Professor Andrew Hoskins, Professor of AI, Memory & War, this interdisciplinary research opportunity aims to produce new understanding of how digital participation is transforming the ways individuals, societies, militaries, and states fight, experience, and perceive warfare. The project will explore the processes by which digital technologies influence the perception, explanation, and legitimacy of war. Successful candidates will join a vibrant academic community at a leading UK institution, working at the intersection of political science, sociology, and digital studies. Funding includes tuition and a stipend, with applications closing on 11 December 2025. Applicants should have a background in social sciences or related fields and a keen interest in the project's themes. For more information and to apply, visit the provided link.
