We host PhD students with a wide range of disciplinary backgrounds.

Investigating choice and consumption in a health care context
Supervisor: Dr Ewen Speed
I am interested in supervising doctoral students who are interested in topics in and around issues of consumption in relation to healthcare. Students should be interested in exploring any aspect of consumerism and consumption from a sociological (or closely related) context. My interests lie particularly in qualitative approaches to the study of the development of principles of 'choice' in relation to health care provision, and how this issue of choice might be related to bigger changes within health care provision, and indeed to bigger social processes of New Public Management (NPM) and Neo-liberalism. In a related context, I would also be interested in supervising students with an interest in the commodification or marketisation of health care, and the role of rubrics of 'quality' in these processes, again in relation to NPM and neo-liberalism.
