Kathy Dobson and Scott Mitchell, doctoral candidates in Communication and ALiGN Media Lab affiliated researchers, were both selected to attend the Surveillance Studies Summer Seminar<\/a> held June 15-21at Queen\u2019s University in Kingston, Ontario.<\/p>\n

The seminar is held every two years for a select and small group of doctoral candidates from around the world. It aims to provide doctoral students with \u201can intensive, multi-disciplinary learning experience that addresses key issues of surveillance studies in ways that enhance the participants\u2019 own research projects, as well as providing a unique national and international networking opportunity, and making links between scholarship, policy and activism.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSince Big Data and Surveillance are both important components of my research looking at governance and surveillance of people living with poverty,\u201d says Dobson, \u201cI was thrilled when I learned my application to the Seminar was successful.<\/p>\n

Mitchell agrees that the week-long program was incredibly helpful with his work, adding that being able to meet other doctoral students from around the globe was very rewarding. \u201cWe were able to make connections I believe will last for years to come as we find links and overlaps between our research interests and goals.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was amazing to be able to meet with and hear directly from some of the top scholars in surveillance studies,\u201d says Dobson. \u201cThese are some of the academics whose work I\u2019ve been reading and following and learning from since starting my PhD studies three years ago.\u201d<\/p>\n

For both Dobson and Mitchell, attending the Surveillance Studies Summer Seminar<\/a> was a rewarding and enriching experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
