The UT Libraries 2023 Map & Geospatial Collections Explorer Fellowship call for proposals is currently open through October 2, 2023. The UT Libraries Map & Geospatial Collections Fellowship is designed to encourage students and faculty at the University of Texas at Austin to develop scholarly and creative projects that utilize or enhance the Libraries’ map and geospatial data resources. These geospatial resources have contributed to the scholarly and creative output of UT scholars for decades and it is the goal of this fellowship to preserve, augment, and promote these assets so that they can be made more useful and accessible than ever before.
Student and faculty/post-doc proposals are considered as separate submission categories and will be judged independently, with the intention of awarding one $1500 fellowship per category per year. Award winners will have their work featured in one or more UT Libraries repositories.
