The Opportunity
This PhD scholarship is funded as an important part of an ARC funded project The Other Democracy: Medes in the Iron Age by Dr Hilary Gopnik (Monash University), Associate Professor Leah Minc (Oregon State University) and Professor Pam Crabtree (New York University).
This project aims to use evidence from archaeology and historical texts to develop a new understanding of the consensus-based political system of the Medes of the Zagros Mountains, Iran in the first millennium BCE. The project will undertake an analysis of the ceramic and faunal material from the two Median sites of Godin Tepe and Tepe Nush-i Jan in order to better understand provisioning of ceramics and animal products at the two congregational sites. The successful applicant will contribute to the project but will also undertake their own distinct PhD project related to the archaeology of Media.
The successful candidate will be integrated into an already successful research agenda that has been funded by the Australian Research Council, and will have access to funding to support fieldwork, travel, and conference attendance. The candidate will benefit from being part of outcomes from the research, which may include co-authored publications (where the candidate’s contributions will be recognised through co-authorship), funded symposia, school-engagement exercises, and future grant applications.
Monash University is the largest university in Australia and regularly ranks in the top 100 universities worldwide. Monash has six globally networked campuses and international alliances in Europe and Asia. The applicant will be based at the Clayton campus in Melbourne. The School of Philosophical, Historical and International Studies (SOPHIS) at Monash is diverse and vibrant, with a strong and supportive research culture led by internationally recognised scholars successful in attracting national and international competitive funding. The Centre for Ancient Cultures is home to a range of research projects studying the history and archaeology of the cultures around the Mediterranean.
Candidate Requirements
The successful applicant will have an excellent academic track record in Archaeology. Competence in both quantitative and qualitative research methods is preferred. A background in ceramic provenience studies and/or archaeology of Iran is desirable. Competence in Persian language would be an asset.
In its assessment, the selection committee will prioritise applicants who hold an Australian (or equivalent international) Honour’s or Master’s degree (both in a relevant field), with a significant research component and with first-class honours/H1 awarded.

PhD Scholarship in Criminology – Social Infrastructure in Prison: A focus on Indigenous Prisoners
The PhD Position
A competitive scholarship is available to undertake full-time PhD research as part of the ARC Discovery Grant project ‘Social Infrastructure in a Society of Captives: Promoting positive human connections in Australian prisons’ (DP210102508), led by Associate Professor Anna Eriksson, and based at the Faculty of Arts at the Clayton campus in Melbourne. This project explores how the concept of ‘social infrastructure’, normally applied to the city and local communities, can be applied to understanding daily life in a society of captives. We define social infrastructure as the places, programs and activities within the prison environment where prisoners have the opportunity to establish positive human connections, which has the potential to reduce the dehumanisation and related harms associated with imprisonment in Australia.
The scholarship is aimed at an Indigenous student, and the PhD Candidate, with support and guidance from the supervisory team, will develop an original project focused on Indigenous prisoners and social infrastructure. Social infrastructure in prisons is an innovative concept that provides the foundation for allowing prisoners to try on different, future-oriented roles. Such roles provide opportunities to move away from the identity of ‘prisoner’ or ‘criminal’ towards an identity that lays for the foundation for desistance post-release.
Key questions of the research would centre around how Indigenous cultures and communities’ approach and define positive social and interpersonal interaction, and how this can be translated into and supported in a carceral environment. A focus will be on how social infrastructure in prison can facilitate and support indigenous prisoners’ connections to self, others and, importantly, Country. Given the significant over-representation of Indigenous prisoners across Australia’s States and Territories, this PhD project will make an important contribution to knowledge in its own right.
The PhD Candidate will be required to undertake a scholarly literature review, conceptualise ‘indigenous social infrastructure’ and develop methods for measuring this, undertake fieldwork and data collection. The fieldwork can take place in any state or Territory in Australia and will be identified together with the supervision team. The PhD candidate will collaborate with local and international researchers in the Social Infrastructure in Prisons program.
Supervision
The ARC project is led by Associate Professor Anna Eriksson (Monash University), who is an international expert in prison culture, comparative penology, Nordic exceptionalism and staff-prisoner relationships, and Professor Dominique Moran (Birmingham University), a world-leading expert in carceral geography. The supervisory team includes Associate Professor Eriksson (main), Professor Moran (external), and an Indigenous scholar as associate supervisor (Associate).
The successful candidate will be integrated into the School of Social Sciences and the Criminology Program, and will have access to funding to support fieldwork, transcription, travel, and conference attendance. The candidate will benefit from expert supervision from research leaders in prison studies, carceral geography, and indigenous studies.
Candidate Requirements
The successful applicant will have an academic track record in a social science discipline (Master’s/ Honours). General competence in qualitative and/or quantitative research methods is sought. An understanding of Australian prison practice, as well as the intersection between Indigenous people and the criminal justice system in Australia is required.
In its assessment, the selection committee will prioritise applicants who hold an Australian (or equivalent international) Honour’s or Master’s degree (both in a relevant field), with a significant research component and with first-class honours/H1 awarded. We strongly encourage Indigenous and Torre Straits applicants.
Details of eligibility requirements, including English-language proficiency skills, to undertake a PhD in the Faculty of Arts are available at www.monash.edu/arts/graduate_research/how-to-apply. Applicants should ensure they familiarise themselves with these requirements before deciding whether they should apply.
Scholarship holders must be enrolled full-time and on campus. Please note: applicants who already hold a PhD will not be considered.
The successful applicant will be expected to enrol between October 2022 and April 2023.
