Summer Opportunities for Columbia Students
2024 APPLICATION CLOSED
These grants support Columbia graduate students and recent MA, MFA, and PhD recipients interested in pursuing research in public humanities and Hellenic Studies through an independent project or in collaboration with a current SNFPHI project. The grants will support research conducted remotely over a six-week period starting May 20, 2024. Students with backgrounds in sciences, art, and architecture and no previous experience with public humanities and Hellenic Studies are particularly encouraged to apply. Grantees will receive $1500 and have access to funds to cover project-related expenses.
Requirements
This internship invites undergraduate students to explore public humanities, gain hands-on experience with its objectives, methods, and outcomes, and pursue a group project that connects research on Greece with a broad public audience. The internship is structured around: (1) a seminar in Hellenic Studies in which students explore aspects of modern Greek history and culture relevant to their internship research, (2) a workshop in which students are trained in the methods and tools of public-facing research, and (3) a group project in which students work closely with Columbia faculty and public humanities partners in Greece. The Summer 2024 project is an online exhibition about the home of Themis Ragias, a collector of art and curiosities based in Athens. Interns will receive $1000 and have access to funds to cover project-related expenses.
