Emerging Digital Designer Grant
The Emerging Digital Designer Grant provides funding and mentorship to Barnard students and alums working on web projects. Grant recipients will be awarded $500 to $1000, and the IMATS tech team will provide mentorship.
*Applications are now closed for Spring 2020. Check back later in the semester for details on the Fall 2020 application.
Program Timing
Fall 2020 applications will be released later in the spring.
Throughout the grant term, grantees will meet weekly for check-ins or workshops with IMATS. The program will conclude with a showcase where the grantees can display their work.
Who Can Apply
For Spring 2020, we required that applicants:
- Be a graduate of an Athena Digital Design Academy course (HTML/CSS or JavaScript)
- Have a web project that is already in progress (such as an ADDA course project) or a strong concept for a new project
Preference was given to current students, though interested alums were also eligible! Please note that all participants need to be available to attend regular on-campus meetings.
