The Netherlands Research school for Media Studies (RMeS) is a national network of academic experts in media research. It is organized to advance knowledge on media and to educate young scholars, both PhD candidates and promising RMa students, in classical and cutting edge theories and methodologies in media studies, and to offer them an opportunity to start building a network.
With this Call for Activities, we reach out to all RMeS members — staff members at the different universities, but also PhD candidates and RMa students — to contribute their ideas, research interests and expertise to the RMeS programme. Do you want to organize a workshop, masterclass, conference, a lecture or even a full course for our RMa students? Please, get in touch with your ideas, suggestions, questions or proposals for academic events!
