The Ryerson Image Centre (RIC) is proud to offer three research fellowships for 2014 with a submission deadline of October 31, 2013. Research fellows will have the opportunity to study selected areas of the RIC's collections first-hand, including the famous Black Star Collection of approximately 292,000 photojournalistic prints, our fine art photographic collection, as well as several world-renowned artist archives. Fellows will work at the RIC's Research Centre, which conducts cutting edge primary research, and offers workshops, conferences and a number of publication programs.
Two research fellowships at the PhD level will be awarded, each of which includes a $3,000 stipend. The RIC will also offer one research fellowship at the MA level, with a stipend of $1,500. Candidates must hold or be working on the respective degree. Residencies will take place at the RIC over one to four weeks between January 6 and December 15, 2014. (Travel and accommodation should be arranged and covered directly by the fellowship recipients.)
Research is a central component of the RIC's mandate and these fellowships will allow scholars and students to further illuminate our unique and rich archival holdings, while conducting innovative primary research related to their respective fields of inquiry.
