Description
Fellowships and Summer Stipends are opportunities for individuals to pursue advanced work in the humanities. Applicants may be faculty or staff members of colleges or universities, or of primary or secondary schools, and scholars and writers.
Projects may contribute to scholarly knowledge or to the general public's understanding of the humanities. Recipients might eventually produce scholarly articles, a monograph on a specialized subject, a book on a broad topic, an archaeological site report, a translation, an edition, or other scholarly tools.
Fellowships and Summer Stipends support projects that can be completed during the tenure of an award or those that are part of a long-term endeavor. Applicants need not have advanced degrees, but only scholars who have completed their formal academic training are eligible to apply. If an applicant has completed all of the official requirements for the degree and is awaiting only the formal award, certification that all requirements have been met by the application deadline must be submitted by the dean of the school awarding the degree.
Award
Tenure normally covers an uninterrupted period of from six to twelve whole months. A grant of $40,000 is for nine to twelve months. A grant of $24,000 is for six to eight months.
