Humanities Center Fellowship

The DHC Fellows Program is designed to foster intellectual exchange both within and outside the university and to support the development, communication, and cross-fertilization of arts and humanities research at DePaul. Central to the latter is reaching out to departments and programs not historically immersed in the humanities in order to welcome scholars doing humanities research into communication with the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences. The fellowships allow full-time tenured/tenure-track DePaul faculty members to pursue and communicate their research by reducing their teaching load, by creating a cohort of Fellows who work together throughout the fellowship, and by providing internal and external forums for the presentation of research.

Award

The DHC will award 2-3 fellowships from among this year's tenured and tenure-track applicants from any unit across the university. Fellows may serve for two academic years. The level of award support is variable depending on the scope of the proposal and available funding. Awards may include course releases, stipends, or a combination of the two. Fellows also receive 120 hours of paid research assistance.
