Course Aims:
To strengthen the capacity of broadcast journalists and the
organisations they work for to research, investigate and report for
broadcast and new media in a responsible and ethical way on issues
that divide individuals and groups in their countries and thereby
(potentially) threaten social cohesion.
Role of the media in changing societies
Societies in development are societies undergoing change. Inherent in
such a process of change is the potential for tension and conflict
among individuals and groups in society. Some of this potential for
tension and conflict may be the reflection of longstanding divisions -
political, religious, ethnic. Some will have more to do with a
circumstantial clash of interests – for instance between the old and
the new (tradition versus modernity) and between individuals and
groups competing for greater influence and prosperity in the society
that is evolving. Broadcast journalists and the organisations they
work for have an important role to play here; they have to ensure that
the great issues of concern to their societies and the attendant
debates are given attention to and that the voices and views of those
involved are heard.
Integrity and credibility
They also have to be prepared to tackle controversial issues which are
not being given the attention they deserve and by so doing help set
the political agenda. But they also have a responsibility to do so
without exacerbating existing divisions or threatening the social
cohesion of the societies they serve. To achieve this, the maintenance
of their integrity and of their credibility as broadcast journalists
is crucial; they may not be perceived as representing certain
population or interest groups at the expense of others. In addition
they must develop the journalistic knowledge and skills they need to
investigate and present potentially divisive issues accurately and in
a balanced non-partisan way.
Investigative research and analysis
The courses will focus on the role, responsibility and requirements of
the broadcast journalist in meeting this challenge. Special attention
will be given to developing and putting into practice the appropriate
knowledge and skills for (investigative) research and analysis and for
the production of various broadcast and internet assignments as well
as to other essential broadcast journalism skills such as
interpretation, speed and accuracy under pressure, communication and
teamwork. There will be a considerable measure of interaction and
exchange of knowledge and skills between radio and television.
Multimedia
Course participants will work with analogue and digital technology for
radio and television and be involved in the design and development of
material for an Internet site related to the theme and focus of the
course. As well as attending sessions devoted to developing their
knowledge and skills in the field of news and current affairs
participants will be sent out on assignments to various locations in
the Netherlands linked to the theme of social conflict and cohesion
and to the role and responsibility of the broadcast journalist in this
field. After leaving the Netherlands at the end of the course
participants will become part of a network of journalists and other
experts through RNTC’s website, intended to foster co-operation and
the further exchange of ideas and experience in the field of broadcast
journalism.

PhD Studentship in the Centre for Vision Speech and Signal Processing - University of Surrey
January 21, 2008
PhD Studentship
Centre for Vision, Speech and Signal Processing
Faculty of Engineering & Physical Sciences
(Ref: 6435)
This is your opportunity to study for a PhD at the Centre for Vision, Speech and Signal Processing, one of the UK’s premier research centres in Computer Vision. The studentship is available immediately and covers both tuition fees and a maintenance grant for 3 years. Successful applicants will join an expanding research group within the Centre for Vision Speech and Signal Processing, which currently has three professors, a reader and seven lecturers, twenty research fellows and about fifty PhD students. CVSSP has an international reputation for the excellence of its research and, in the last Research Assessment Exercise, the Department (of Electronic Engineering) was awarded grade 5*A.
The studentship is part of the EU project ‘DIPLECS’ which seeks to design a Cognitive Architecture that can learn how to drive a car by watching a human. The system will be demonstrated in two domains: providing driver feedback in a real car as part of an assisted safety system and in the autonomous control of model RC devices.
The studentship will investigate visual learning in the domain of weak supervision. Such weak supervision could take the form of object categorisation learnt from images gathered from the internet or using linguistics in the form of commentary to build concepts of objects and actions. The focus will be upon the generic techniques to perform learning from noisy unlabelled data.
Candidates should hold a 1st or 2i honours degree or Masters degree or equivalent in a scientific discipline (e.g., Engineering, Physics, Mathematics or Computing), and should have good written/spoken English and demonstrate an aptitude for the research area. Prior experience in computer vision, image processing or machine learning would be advantageous.

PhD Scholarship in Ocean Engineering Development of a Global Ocean Database at Swinburne University of Technology (SUT)
BACKGROUND:
Swinburne University of Technology (SUT) is seeking a suitably qualified student to undertake post-graduate study to develop an altimeter database for ocean waves and apply it to investigation of extreme wave events.
About Swinburne University of Technology
Swinburne University of Technology is a large multi-sectoral and multi-campus institution with a stated mission to be a pre-eminent entrepreneurial university from the Asia-Pacific, thriving on new ideas and knowledge and exploiting its intersectoral heritage to create value for its stakeholders.
The Faculty of Engineering and Industrial Sciences is host to most of the engineering activities at Swinburne as well as key programs in aviation and photonics. The Coastal Engineering and Physical Oceanography group of the Faculty specialises in research of deep-water and finite-depth wave dynamics, spectral modelling of wind-generated waves, wave breaking and dissipation, air-sea interaction, wave-bottom interaction and turbulence.
PROJECT ABSTRACT:
Over the past 20 years satellite-based radar altimeters have made measurements of ocean wave conditions. During this period of time a total of 7 different altimeter missions have been flown. The combined database represents the most comprehensive dataset ever developed of global wave conditions. This project involves developing a combined database from these separate missions and then applying this to the determination of extreme wave conditions at any location on the global oceans.
The resulting database has the potential to drastically change the way in which ocean wave design is undertaken.
SELECTION CRITERIA
Degree in Engineering, Computer Science or Mathematical Sciences (essential)
Strong analytical and mathematical skills (essential)
A good working knowledge of programming and databases (desirable)
Commencement Date:
March 2008 Scholarship: A$24,815 per annum, tax exempt. Duration – three years
