We are interested in both theoretical and practical approaches to DH.

We particularly encourage candidates with a background in any of the following areas:

 - cultural analytics and distant reading

 - sound studies, sonic/audiovisual DH

 - digital aesthetics

 - new media arts, practice-based DH

 - global digital humanities

However, we welcome applications from candidates in any area of the Digital Humanities, broadly defined. The successful applicant will have a commitment to Digital Humanities as their interdisciplinary home.

Candidates must have a completed PhD in a relevant area (or have submitted their thesis for examination) and will be contributing to research-led teaching. They will have teaching experience at either undergraduate or postgraduate level.
