Hello,
The most famous PHD program in Inclusive Design is:
https://sisweb.ucd.ie/usis/!W_HU_MENU.P_PUBLISH?p_tag=PROG&MAJR=T310

If you want to study something specific, I would look at your favorite
authors and send them an email asking about their program. Some academic
authors (Bruce Walker in the sonification space for example), run PHD labs
and accept students in a computer science degree to build sonifications.
Thanks,
