About This Opportunity

The Wahlgrenska Foundation offers research funding for media scholars with a focus on mass media studies. This year, the Foundation is calling for applications for six general grants of SEK 100,000 each. Applications from younger post-doctoral researchers with well-defined projects will be prioritized. Areas of interest include the position of the mass media – such as the press, radio, television, or different computer media – their production conditions, contents, forms of expression and dissemination as well as their importance for society and for people's attitudes and daily lives. The perspective may be local, national or transnational and pertain to history, the current era or the future. The Foundation requires high scientific quality in applications and documented research capacity from applicants. Researchers active outside Sweden may also apply for a grant.
