The premier research center for online maters, Berkman, is accepting applicants for the next academic year. Projects from Berkamn include the Digital Natives research project the Citizen Media Law Project. One of my favorite ideas FriendlyTOS is also housed at Berkman (although it needs an Evangelist/leader).
The Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University is now accepting applications for fellowships for the 2011-2012 academic year.
We are currently accepting applications through two distinct channels:
- First, we are accepting applications for a specific fellowship opportunity: our academic fellowship for rising early-to-mid career academics.
- Second, we are accepting applications for fellowships through our annual open call.
The academic fellowship is intended for a rising scholar who will use the period of the fellowship to develop his/her teaching and research career and produce compelling, potentially paradigm-shifting contributions to our understanding of cyberspace. It is a stipended fellowship and residency in Cambridge, MA is required. The deadline for applications for the academic fellowship is 11:59 p.m. ET on November 15, 2010.
Our annual open call for fellowship applications is an opportunity for academics and practitioners working on issues related to Internet and society to apply to be part of the Berkman fellows community. Stipends and administrative determinations are made on a case-by-case basis, and residency in Cambridge, MA is preferred, though in lieu of residency, routine visits to Cambridge are required. The deadline for applications through our open call is 11:59 p.m. ET on December 15, 2010.
