The HDW provides opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students to participate in research projects led by Washington University faculty.
The HDW is happy to offer positions in its HDW Fellows program for the Fall 2009 semester. HDW Fellows are undergraduates who participate in the research activity sponsored by the Workshop, whose supported projects include:
The ideal fellow has an interest in the humanities and a capacity for interest in the application of technology to them, but is not necessarily a humanities student, nor must she be highly technically experienced (though either of these are of course welcome!). Typical fellowship activities include markup of textual and visual material in XML, designing the display of same in XSLT and CSS, as well as traditional tasks like library and bibliographical research, and annotation and organization of primary source material.
Research assistants usually work 5 hours a week, and will take part in group meetings every other week; the wage is $10 per hour.
To apply
Please email Perry Trolard with a short description of your interest in the program and with a list of open times in your schedule. Deadline for application is September 9th.
