Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

Positions available: 18

We would like students to design and publish books. This will run in conjunction with the writing projects that we are running. Graphic design projects will be staggered to run one week after the other group of students finish their writing.

To accomplish this, we expect the student(s) will:

  • design and publish one book each week
  • design and publish books (interior and exterior) each week and upload to publishing servers and sites
  • use Adobe to publish
  • keep timelines

This is an ongoing initiative over 8 weeks. Students will work on 2 separate books per phase of the initiative. There will be 4 project postings on Riipen that students will need to apply for.

About the company

The Antarctic Institute of Canada is a non-profit Canadian charity organization founded by former Antarctic researcher Austin Mardon in 1985. Its original aim was to lobby for the federal government of Canada to increase the extent of Canadian research in the Antarctic. However, AIC slowly diversified and initiated programs for students to publish Antarctic research in newspapers and academic journals. These days, the AIC supports academic writing, research, and multimedia in many fields, expanding far beyond the organization’s original focus on Antarctica.
