Hi all,
As a senior research fellow at the Brooklyn Waterfront Research Center (BWRC), I am happy to announce that we have an internship opportunity that might be of interest to members of this group. Please feel free to distribute widely.
The Brooklyn Waterfront Research Center (BWRC) at New York City College of Technology has an opportunity for a graduate student with DH experience, especially in the areas of digital mapmaking (knowledge of Story Maps would be helpful), data collecting, photograph taking/managing, and online systems management—all related to our current project focused on art in Brooklyn. More specifically, the BWRC has been given funding to hire a graduate student intern who would research, collect data, help input/build, and implement a digital map. The map platform is being built by CUNY Mapping Services. This digital map would be specifically geared to highlight our upcoming conference on March 27: “Spaces and Places: Arts along the Brooklyn Waterfront.” We envision this digital, interactive map to have images and information about artists, art spaces, art organizations, art galleries, museums, and resources for artists.
We expect that this candidate will be able to allocate fifty hours to this project, which will span from February to April, approximately. The position is paid.
Please submit curriculum vitae to the attention of Prof. Richard Hanley, Director, BWRC, using the subject line “BWRC Mapping.” [rhanley@citytech.cuny.edu]
