 We welcome applicants for the 2nd annual USC Annenberg Summer 
Institute on Diversity in Media and Culture, June 15-19, 2015. The 
Institute will bring together exemplary doctoral students and faculty 
members from across the disciplines of Communication and Media Studies 
and around the nation to discuss issues of race, gender and difference 
in media, within the shifting conditions of technology, production, 
circulation and consumption as well as the shifting discourse of 
difference in the areas of politics, culture and globalization. 
Approximately 20 doctoral students will be chosen to participate based 
on submitted papers and recommendations from their advisors.


 The Institute will be divided into workshop sessions that feature 
current work from Institute faculty (listed below) and research seminars 
in which all participants present and discuss their own 
work-in-progress. Speakers in the workshop sessions will examine race, 
gender, and difference in the media from a variety of interdisciplinary 
and methodological perspectives. The Institute welcomes participants who 
are involved in a range of disciplinary and interdisciplinary fields and 
who are interested in current critical debates in Communication and 
Media Studies.


Applications, including a statement of background and interests and a 
paper that fits within the Institute’s broad topical range, should be 
sent to: USC Annenberg Summer Institute, School of Communication, 3502 
Watt Way, Los Angeles, CA 90089-0281. Applicants should have their 
faculty advisor send a supporting recommendation to the same address. 
Applications and recommendations can also be submitted via email to: 
(commdir /at/ usc.edu).


The Institute will cover participants’ travel to Los Angeles and housing 
in USC dormitory space.
