Oxford Internet Institute Summer Doctoral Programme

My two weeks at this year’s Oxford Internet Institute Summer Doctoral Programme are coming to an end. And yes, it has been quite a fortnight as they say here in the UK. While it has been very interesting to meet and discuss with other doctoral candidates with similar research interests as myself, it has been equally intellectually stimulating to hear about other research projects, unrelated to my thesis. In short: there’s a lot of interesting research going on… Aside from the scholarly side of things, the social events have been equally fun and rewarding. All in all, time and money well spent. I hope to see my fellow cohort friends at future conferences – perhaps at IR12 in Seattle this year? Oh, and if you do come, don’t forget to bring the Pimm’s!
