The Department of Digital Media and Design is pleased to announce a funded two-year M.F.A. studentship in Digital Media & Design (concentration open). The studentship will provide full tuition, health benefits, and a half-time graduate research assistantship with Greenhouse Studios / Scholarly Communications Design at UConn. Funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, Greenhouse Studios is dedicated to solving the problems and exploring the opportunities of scholarship in the “digital age.” A transdisciplinary collective, Greenhouse Studios reframes the practices, pathways and products of scholarly communications through inquiry-driven, collaboration-first approaches to the creation and expression of knowledge. Greenhouse Studios Graduate Assistants provide artistic, design, creative expression, and technical implementation assistance to Greenhouse Studios projects. Working in a dynamic, team environment alongside faculty, library, editor, and student colleagues, graduate assistants contribute to the production of collaborative multimedia research objects. Other responsibilities include supporting day-to-day operations of the Greenhouse Studios, its directors, and its collaborative workspace. This is an exciting opportunity for an aspiring artist or scholar to work in close collaboration with experts from a range of fields and to experiment with new modes of expression and communication.
