CDTS Summer School 2024

This summer, join us for a 5-day course that will enable you to understand and explore the nature digital harms and the cross-cutting research and opportunities that relate to digital trust and society.

This course will enable you to understand the nature of digital harms, from online crimes to the malicious manipulation of information, the influence of behaviours and attitudes, and transcending the digital boundaries to effect physical and psychological attacks. We will explore the different ways in which those harms can be reduced or prevented so that you can make well-informed choices about countering security threats in personal, societal and business contexts. Moreover, we will learn about cross-cutting research on digital trust and society and discuss the methodological challenges and opportunities associated with research in this domain. 

Cost: £150pp, including food and accommodation from Monday-Friday and a free walking-tour. 

Registration opening soon. Please bookmark this page and email dts-centre@manchester.ac.uk to register interest.
