[ecrea] OBS Grants for ECREA summer school

Grants for Central and Eastern European Students for ECREA summer school

Funding Support for the European Media and Communication Doctoral Summer 
School by the Otto-Brenner-Foundation

From 11th to 14th of August 2013, young researchers from over 17 
European countries will meet at ZeMKI, Centre for Media, Communication 
and Information Research of the University of Bremen, to present and 
discuss their doctoral projects in an innovative and intensive learning 
environment. PhD students from all over Europe are invited to apply for 
participation in the summer school.

With help from the Otto-Brenner-Stiftung (OBS), participants from 
Central and Eastern Europe can apply for exclusive OBS grants that cover 
the summer school fee. Applications are possible with immediate effect 
through the summer school website www.comsummerschool.org.

Media and communications are becoming increasingly important worldwide. 
Therefore, a solid training for young researchers in the field of media 
and communication studies is of high relevance. The University of Bremen 
makes a significant contribution here. Together with strong partners,  
ZeMKI researchers are organizing the European Media and Communication 
Doctoral Summer School of the European Communication and Education 
Association (ECREA) for the next three  years. In order to achieve this, 
ZeMKI is cooperating with 21 partner universities, the ECREA, the Bremen 
International Graduate School of Social Sciences (BIGSSS) and the 
research network “Communicative figurations". This year, the two-week 
event is funded as part of the summer academy programme of the German 
Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and mainly financed by the German 
Foreign Office (AA).

In total, 44 doctoral students can participate. In addition, 25 renowned 
researchers of media and communication studies from across Europe will 
come to Bremen to provide the PhD students with valuable feedback. The 
application deadline for PhD students is the 15th of March.
