*_Extended Deadline: 2016 Annenberg-Oxford Summer Institute Applications_*
The deadline has been extended for applications to the 18th annual
Annenberg-Oxford Media Policy Summer Institute, to be held from Monday
June 27 to Friday July 8, 2016 at the University of Oxford. Applications
are now due by Monday April 11, 2016 at 5:00PM EST. To apply, please
visit:https://upennasc.hobsonsradius.com/ssc/aform/M07026C7T86G0x67023M.ssc

For seventeen years, the Institute has brought together top early career
communications scholars, media lawyers and regulators, internet
governance experts, and freedom of expression and human rights activists
from countries around the world to discuss the effects of technology and
policy from a global and multidisciplinary perspective. The Summer
Institute provides participants with an intensive two week
interdisciplinary curriculum that combines expert instruction from media
policymakers and scholars with hands-on activities such as stakeholder
mapping, policy analysis, group case studies, and participant presentations.

The 2016 Annenberg-Oxford Summer Institute will explore themes such as
strategic narratives and propaganda, the role of the media in political
change and conflict, global internet governance processes, online
censorship and surveillance, and the relationship between international
media laws and national jurisdictions. Applications are welcomed from
students studying communications, sociology, political science,
international relations, area studies, anthropology, information
studies, and related disciplines. Practitioners working in media, law,
policy, regulation, and technology are also encouraged to apply.

This year, limited scholarships are available for Iranian and Southeast
Asian participants as well as applicants with a focus on internet policy.

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis before the deadline, so please submit as soon as possible. Several partial scholarships are
available to top applicants. For more information about the program and
