SSBxFab Accepting Applications for Fellows

Posted by jsantiago | December 10, 2007

The SSBxFab Fellow Program will serve as an interface between people who have engineering and/or design backgrounds (at either an amateur or professional level) with residents of the community who wish to further their knowledge base in these areas.

In exchange for access to the suite of digital fabrication equipment for use on their own personal projects, the Fab Fellow will teach either a class or do one-on-one tutorial sessions with South Bronx residents. We’re particularly looking for those who have a passion for making things, but also enjoy sharing, collaboration, and helping others.

The FabFellow applicant should respond with a 500 word personal statement, elaborating on why they would like to be a part of the FabFellow program, and addressing the 4 questions listed at the bottom of this page. The applicant should also include a curriculum vitae, detailing relevant design experience. If the applicant has any background with teaching, (as a teacher, TA, a personal tutor, or lab assistant, etc.) that should also be noted.
