About
Each year, HumanitiesX offers 4-6 paid student fellowships to undergraduate or graduate students who are pursuing a degree or minor in DePaul's College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences. Applicants must have notable school, work, or personal experience both in the humanities and related to one or more of the pressing social challenges evoked in our HumanitiesX themes: Immigration and Migration, The Environment: Crisis and Action, and Democracy and Rights.
Student Fellows learn about the public humanities, support faculty and community partner teams as they develop new HumanitiesX courses, and create public-facing writing and public humanities deliverables for audiences at DePaul and beyond.
Student fellows are paid for 8-10 hours of work per week and must be available for the full term of the fellowship, which runs from the spring quarter through the autumn quarter, including the summer.
The application cycle for 2026 HumanitiesX Student Fellows will open in WQ 2026. For more information about the fellowship, please contact the HX coordinator, Amanda Lautermilch.
