Established in 2021, the Digital Politics Online Summer School offers an opportunity for postgraduate students at Manchester Met to meet with other students and early career researchers and to take part in masterclasses led by world class scholars in the field of digital politics, society and media. Over the years, the school has supported networking, nurtured pioneering ideas, and mentored our students through all stages of academic publication from inception, through peer review and to the final publication. Our first Summer School led to a publication of Digital Politics, Digital Histories, Digital Futures – a collection of chapters, creative reflections and methodological interventions authored by our students. The School is free, and open to all.
