About this position
Monash University is offering a fully funded research-based PhD scholarship at the School of Education and Culture within the Faculty of Education, based at the Clayton campus in Melbourne, Australia.
The doctoral project forms part of the Australian Research Council-funded project Hitting the Limits: Intersectional sexisms in Australian universities. It will examine LGBTIQA+ academics’ institutional locations, workplace experiences, and private and professional sources of support within Australian universities.
The successful researcher will be encouraged to develop an individual PhD project around questions concerning where LGBTIQA+ academics are located by discipline and geography, whether they feel welcome in their workplaces, and which support mechanisms or strategies they draw on in their private and professional lives.
The wider project investigates how gender, power, intersectionality, and complexity shape university culture and the conditions that limit social cohesion. The PhD student will join Monash’s research community and work alongside researchers from across Australia, connecting with students and leading experts internationally.
Principal supervision is provided by Associate Professor Emily M. Gray, with Professor Jacqueline Ullman and Associate Professor Lucy Nicholas as associate supervisors from Western Sydney University.
