PhD Position in Design // Interfacing the Ocean

We would like to draw your attention to our fully funded PhD position in Design/Marine Ecology. As part of the National Science Foundation project "Interfacing the Ocean", the team of Karmen Franinovic, Roman Kirschner, Anthea Oestreicher and Rasa Weber has announced an open 100% practice-oriented PhD position. We would be happy if you could spread the announcement in your network!

We are offering a 4-year PhD position on the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) project „Interfacing the Ocean”, which seeks to initiate a sea change in design in collaboration with marine biology and anthropology. This unique project explores how creative practices in and with ocean environments support sympoietic underwater processes, foster sensitive human-marine species interactions and encourage multispecies coexistence. By integrating a number of institutional partners “Interfacing the Ocean” aims at establishing a new perspective on design in and with the ocean.
