Graphic Narratives Lab Student Fellowships

Status: Now accepting applications

The HRC Graphic Narratives Lab is seeking three undergraduate student fellows for the 2024-2025 academic year. The fellowships are open to any major, and will last through the fall and spring semesters. Fellows will propose a project plan, either in the creation (i.e comic strip, zine), writing (writing a script for a comic or zine), and/or scholarship of comics (i.e. an essay discussing a topic/theme within the comics genre). Fellows will be mentored by a lab co-director, and in addition to working on their projects throughout the year, will also meet once a month as a group to talk about their progress, and will organize an event once a semester to present their projects to the campus community. A stipend of $1000 will be awarded to each fellow.

Fellows will also be expected to participate in and support events put on by the HRC Graphic Narratives Lab, and encouraged to attend other events at the HRC during their fellowship. If you’re interested, please submit your proposal using the form below.
