Description:

The CDIL Graduate Student Summer Fellowship Program provides a stipend for a student currently enrolled in a university graduate program to work on the development of CDIL-related digital projects, be they projects related to CDIL connected faculty or that of the graduate student’s own creation.

Who is eligible:

Any graduate student currently enrolled at U of I (regardless of graduation date). Preference will be given to students whose work and potential project are related to work currently performed in the CDIL.
