European Doctoral Summer School in Communication 2005, Tartu, Estonia.

We are happy to invite you to participate in European Doctoral Summer 
School in Communication 2005 this time in Tartu, in Estonia on 23rd-28th of 
August 2005. The overall theme for the programme will be "Media and 
Everyday Life".

The European Doctoral Summer School in Communication 2005 brings together 
members of the European research community to summer schools in order to 
debate contemporary issues in media, communication and cultural studies. 
The programme combines contributions from international experts and junior 
scholars, and takes the form of lectures, seminars, presentations, and 
workshops. The summer school aims to provide a supportive 
international  setting where doctoral students can present their ongoing 
work and meet students and academics from other countries, establishing 
valuable contacts for the future. It also presents the international 
landscape of communication and media research, helping the students situate 
themselves on it.

The summer school will be in the premises of University of Tartu, 
department of media and communication. Summer School fee will cover 
participation of the summer school, summer school materials, accommodation, 
breakfast, coffee and lunch will be provided for the students. The fee for 
the summer school will be 200 euros for consortium member students or 
members of the ECCR and who are willing to share a room. With fee 225 
euros, people who are neither members of the consortium, nor members of 
ECCR. An extra 50 euros will be charged from those who want to live in 
single rooms. There are no travel- or other grants.

Each interested student will be expected to send an abstract of their work 
(no more than 400 words) and 1 page summary of your PhD project covering 
following information:
a. What is your main paradigm?
b. What is your theoretical framework?
c. What are your methods?
d. What is your main objective?
e. How much time have you used, how much time have your left?

by 30th of April to (summerschool /at/ jrnl.ut.ee) Acceptance will be announced by 
15th of May. Accepted abstracts will be published on summer school website 
and students are expected to find a student paper that they would like to 
be respondents to.

By 15th of June accepted students will be expected to:
1. Prepare a 10 page (3000 words) paper
2. Prepare a set of questions (max 1 page) with questions or problems 
related to their PhD projects
3. Give their choice of student paper that they would like to be 
respondents to.

The paper should be a report of the student.s ongoing doctoral research and 
not a conventional conference paper or a report of findings. Rather, it is 
expected that the student will briefly present the focus of the research 
and then take up aspects of the research process: methodological, 
theoretical and practical issues on which he/she would like to receive 
feedback.

By the time of the summer school, each student has to prepare a 10-minute 
seminar presentation covering the main points of their work.

The number of students will be limited to 2-3 students from each member 
university of the consortium. Students whose universities are not members 
of the consortium can apply to be part of the programme through European 
Consortium of the Communication Researchers (ECCR)
