by Thatiany Andrade Nunes 16 Apr '25

16 Apr '25

Since we had some dissertations completed on 2024, thought this might be of interest to some of you! ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: AoIR Association Coordinator via Air-L <air-l(a)listserv.aoir.org> Date: Wed, Apr 16, 2025 at 1:21 PM Subject: [Air-L] 2025 AoIR Dissertation Award Nominations Open To: <air-l(a)listserv.aoir.org> The Association of Internet Researchers is pleased to call for submissions for the 2025 AoIR Dissertation Awards. To be eligible for the AoIR Dissertation Awards, a PhD dissertation in the area of internet research must have been filed in the 2024 calendar year. *Nominations must be received by 12 May 2025*. All methods and disciplines are welcome. This year, because we are taking our conference to Brazil, where there is a large academic community that writes in Portuguese, we will also be awarding a Dissertation Award for a doctoral dissertation written in Portuguese. This is an occasional award; we will consider offering a similar award when holding the conference in countries in which it makes sense to do so. Submissions details: - A nomination letter that explains why the dissertation is deserving of the award and how it contributes to internet research - A PDF copy of the dissertation should be emailed to dissertationaward [at] aoir.org - The graduate or their supervisor must be a member of AoIR (by 12 May 2025) - Self-nominations are permitted - “Filed in 2024” means that the dissertation has been fully defended, all edits complete, and filed/published in 2024 (this date will usually appear on the front cover or front pages of the dissertation). A letter that the student’s committee has approved the PhD can also establish this. The recipients of these awards will be announced mid-year 2025. In addition to winning a cash prize, the individual will be presented an award during the Association General Meeting(AGM) at the #AoIR2025 conference in October. In addition, and if relevant, AoIR will contribute up to US$1000 towards the cost of making a publication from the winners’ dissertation Open Access. (Please note, this is not the same as Article Processing Payments; we will support publication in reputable journals only.) The committee to judge dissertations in English is this year comprised of Kate O'Riordan (University of Sussex and Committee Chair), Jean-Christophe Plantin (London School of Economics), Usha Raman (University of Hyderabad), and Vanessa Valiati (Universidade Feevale-RS). The committee to judge dissertations in Portuguese is comprised of Nanci Oddone (Universidade Federal do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UNIRIO) and Committee Chair), Raquel Recuero (Federal University of Pelotas (UFPel)), Rafael Grohmann (University of Toronto) and João C. Magalhães (University of Groningen). For any questions about English-language submissions, please contact Kate O'Riordan dissertationaward [at] aoir.org or Nicholas John prez [at] aoir.org. Please direct any questions about Portuguese-language submissions to ac [at] aoir.org. _______________________________________________ The Air-L(a)listserv.aoir.org mailing list is provided by the Association of Internet Researchers http://aoir.org Subscribe, change options or unsubscribe at: http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org Join the Association of Internet Researchers: http://www.aoir.org/ -- *Thatiany Andrade Nunes* <https://wiki.communitydata.science/User:Thatiany> *PhD Student* *Media, Technology, and Society* *Northwestern University* *Community Data Science Collective* <http://www.communitydata.science/>
