*Overview *
The Doctoral Summer School will have two inter-connected themes. 
Firstly, we aim to provide students with the knowledge and skills that 
will help them to develop as Early Career Researchers (ECRs) and 
contribute to the next generation of academics. Secondly, we will engage 
students with a /fusion /of media and management theory, and practice by 
examining the emerging theoretical and media practice developments that 
will ultimately define the next generation of research challenges.
The Summer School will consist of four blocks of activity:
• /Developing Early Career Researchers: /these sessions prepare PhD 
students for life as an ECR. This will include: How to develop a 
publishing strategy; Writing for an academic journal; Developing a 
digital profile & research network; EU funding opportunities for ECRs.
• /Thesis Feedback: /doctoral students will present their research and 
receive feedback from senior faculty and peers. These sessions will help 
students to structure their arguments and clarify their contribution to 
knowledge.
• /Leading Edge Research: /senior faculty from within the academic 
community will present their research and facilitate group activities 
and discussion.
• /Media Practice: /senior executives from media firms will present 
their thoughts on the ‘big issues’ that media firms will face in the future.
