As a PhD candidate specializing in digital media, culture, and innovation, your research will contribute to our understanding of societal transformation through digital technologies, creative arts, business practices, and communication platforms.

Digital culture spans diverse themes and investigative approaches, examining how social media alters human connections, how AI and IoT reshape our interactions with the world, or how VR revolutionizes creative industries. These dynamic areas form a core research strength at the University of Brighton.

Students benefit from institutional support through specialized research hubs, particularly the Centre for Digital Cultures and Innovation.

Our interdisciplinary faculty across the School of Art and Media and the School of Humanities and Social Science offer robust academic guidance for digital media scholars. We encourage both theoretical and practice-based research proposals, with expertise spanning industry trends, grassroots activism across local and international settings, and evolving audience behaviors and participation models.
