Applications are open for the Sherman Centre’s 2024 graduate residency

Applications are open for the 2024 Graduate Residency in Digital Scholarship.

The residency program—hosted by the Sherman Centre for Digital Scholarship—is designed to support graduate students to work on a facet of a research project in digital scholarship (related or not, to their primary graduate research work). The residency runs from January to August 2024.

Full details about eligibility and expectations are available on the Sherman Centre website.

Residents are encouraged to consider digital scholarship through critical, technical, artistic and experimental purview, and through methodological approaches and theoretical frameworks that advance digital scholarship or provoke what it means to ‘do’ it.

The collegial atmosphere of the residency is sustained through recurrent In-person meetings during the Winter 2024 term facilitate interdisciplinary dialogue and opportunities for collaboration at the Sherman Centre and beyond, while maintaining a collegial atmosphere for the residents. The summer 2024 term will feature self-directed research work.

Current or accepted graduate students can apply for the residency.

The application deadline is Monday, November 6, 2023.

Successful candidates will be notified by early December.
