As part of the Trico Digital Humanities (Tri-Co DH) initiative, we're offering grants and fellowships to students within the Trico community.  The goal of these grants is to foster student-driven initiatives, research, and collaborations which engage with questions concerning new media. Grants are available up to $4,350 and can be used for a number of projects such as pursuing an internship with a start-up tech company, facilitating social media transition for a company or organization, or pursuing research in a digital medium. Students from all majors and years are eligible to apply (unless otherwise specified).

The fellowship is open to juniors and seniors who are interested in exploring digital humanities questions and testing new tools.  Each student will be a key player in shaping digital initatives and reports out to the Trico college community. Working group members will also have the opporunity to create a digital resume/ C.V .For any questions, please contact Jen Rajchel.

Trico DH Research Fellowships
Please submit applications by January 30, 2012

The Trico Digital Humanities Research Fellowship provides students the opportunity to be the principal investigator on a research-based poject. The driving inquiry of the project should either concern new media or be published (completely or in part) in a new media format.  The project should emphasize how the role of technology will advance an understanding of the specific research aims of the project. For example, asking how film based narratives change the way that we think about spectatorship or creating a digital archive to explore the intertextuality of a work. For further details on how to apply, please consult the Undergraduate RFP. For any questions, please contact Jen Rajchel.
