Developers, technologists, engineers or programmers interested in journalism can apply for a fellowship.

The Knight-Mozilla OpenNews Fellowship offers developers and technologists in newsrooms worldwide US$60,000 to spend 10 months writing code in collaboration with reporters, designers and newsroom developers.

Six newsrooms will be hosting this year’s fellows — The New York Times, ProPublica, The Texas Tribune, La Nacion, Ushahidi and Internews in Kenya.

Along with the stipend paid over 10 months, the fellowship provides supplements for housing, childcare, health insurance, moving expenses and helps pay for research/equipment and books. The fellowship also covers the costs of required travel for fellowship activities.
