2023-2024 CHI Fellowship Call
The Cultural Heritage Informatics Graduate Fellowship Program offer MSU graduate students the skills to creatively and thoughtfully apply digital methods and computational approaches to cultural heritage collections, materials, data, questions, and challenges.
While the fellowship, which spans an academic year, involves workshops, collaborative development work, and technical experimentation, the overall organizational focus of the fellowship is the development (either individually or collaboratively) of a significant and innovative digital cultural heritage project. Projects might include (but are certainly not limited to) a mobile application, a digital exhibit, a digital archive, or a collaborative digital publication. The project must also have a significant public component.
To support their work, fellows will receive a stipend of $2500 per semester. In addition, fellows will have the opportunity to receive an additional $1000 to expand their project during the summer. While applicants may have previous technical experience, such experience is not required to apply.
For more information, including eligibility and application requirements, check out the full program description. Deadline for applications is 5pm (EST) on May 12, 2023
In addition, we will be hosting an informal information session on May 5 from 10:30-11:30 (EST) over Zoom on the CHI Fellowship Program. Attendees will be provided an introduction to the fellowship program, including disciplinary and intellectual scope, expectations, activities, resources, and support. The session is open to any and all graduate students who are interested in finding out more about the CHI Grad Fellowship Program.
If you are interested in attending, please register (https://msu.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJMqcOmvrzMpG9wTaRKIG58AcuY86oc8gWSW#/registration). Upon submission of the registration form, you will be automatically sent the link to the Zoom meeting.
