International Summer School Scholarship 2011, Istanbul: Anthropology, Demography, Economics, Political Science

The Migration Research Center at Koç University, MiReKoc, is launching its first Summer School Program on July 3-10, 2011. Designed as a one-week summer school course on the premises of Koç University’s main campus in Sar?yer, Istanbul, the program will provide research-oriented, interdisciplinary, and innovative academic courses on migration, as well as workshops on related policy issues for professional development. A week of lectures and discussions will be given by a distinguished international faculty, and coursework will be combined with field trips within Istanbul involving seminars given by government policymakers. While applications from all over the world are encouraged, only a select number of applicants admitted on merit will be eligible for scholarships.
Course offerings will take into account the various needs of academic and professional development in the field of international migration across a wide range of disciplines, including anthropology, demography, economics, political science, sociology, and international relations. The program seeks to bring together groups of interested individuals from an enormously varied geographical, cultural, and academic background to study intensively for a week in Istanbul. The courses will be taught by a team of well-known academics in the field who will also represent a wide range of countries in an effort to match the diversity of the student body. Such a multi-cultural composition will provide a stimulating environment for engaging participants and faculty in an inspiring and enriching dialogue during the summer school program on migration relation issues.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 1 March  2011
