Announcing HASTAC Fellowship 2023–2025

By Washington University Libraries

The Humanities, Arts, Science and Technology Alliance and Collaboratory (HASTAC) Scholars fellowship program is an innovative student-driven community of graduate and undergraduate students. Each year, around 100 new Scholars are accepted into a new two-year cohort of the program. Scholars come from dozens of disciplines and have been sponsored by over 200 colleges and universities—ranging from small liberal arts colleges to large Research 1 institutions.

WashU will select two graduate scholars to complete a two-year appointment. Each Scholar will receive a $3,000 stipend in year one and sponsorship for one summer in the summer Humanities Digital Workshop. In year two scholars will receive a $4,000 stipend and up to $2,000 toward attending the HASTAC conference (held biennially).

Requirements/Commitments

 The scholar commits two years to:

  • Work with a digital humanities mentor
  • Work on digital humanities projects for the Libraries under the guidance of the mentor an average of five to ten hours per week.
  • Meet with their mentor regularly for the duration of the fellowship
  • Write a blog post about their fellowship experience
  • Participate in a summer Humanities Digital Workshop
  • Attend the HASTAC conference

Washington University Libraries commit two years to:

  • A mentor to support the scholar in pursuing digital humanities methods
  • Highlighting the work of the scholar
  • Supporting the scholar to attend the HASTAC conference
  • Sponsoring the scholar to participate in the HDW summer workshop one of the two years
