The OII’s Summer Doctoral Programme (SDP) is accepting applications for the 2010 SDP, which will be held in Oxford from 5-16 July. See: OII SDP2010: Oxford (5-16 July 2010) We began this programme in the summer of 2003, and it has always been one of the most successful activities of the OII. We invite students from round the world who are doing a dissertation on the Internet. Anyone who has passed the stage of completing a proposal, but has not completed their thesis is most welcome. The idea is to return from the programme with an improved thesis, at whatever stage you joined. If you are interested, please check out the Web site, and e-mail the course director this summer, Dr Rebecca Eynon, on mailto:sdp@oii.ox.ac.uk
