Applications are now open for the fourth round of UQ’s Graduate Digital Research Fellowship.

Fellows will be confirmed research students who will spend one year honing their digital skills and working with local and international digital research practitioners to create a scholarly work that uses digital research methods, such as digital publication, software or data sets.

Those from Humanities and Social Sciences (HASS) disciplines across UQ, including those outside of the Faculty of HASS, are encouraged to apply.

The fellowship, administered by UQ’s Graduate School, is designed to prepare research students to academic or non-academic careers in digital scholarship.

Marco Fahmi, RCC Manager of Digital HASS, developed the program, launched last year, with the Digital Scholars’ Hub and the Faculty of HASS.

Ten fellows have completed the program and one is currently halfway through their study.

The fellows meet regularly at RCC and have access to digital research support staff who can advise and collaborate on their digital projects.

Expressions of interest are sought from current higher-degree research HASS students who are confirmed or will be prior to March 2020.

Expressions of interest in the fellowship close Friday, 31 January 2020. The fellowship period is from February to October 2020.
