You will also be encouraged to engage with other internal and external collaborators through initiatives at the Faculty and the University level, for example, through the new University-level research theme on the topic Digital, https://www.liverpool.ac.uk/research/research-themes/digital/.

We value the diversity of our department and welcome applications from all sectors of the community.
