Open now: Prestigious fellowship applications in AHSS fields
Please consider sharing with your faculty
Dear Chairs of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences Departments,
Over the past year or so, many of you have encouraged your faculty to participate in conversations and sessions designed to help them apply for leading fellowships in AHSS fields. We saw strong interest in recent campus HISB workshops guided by representatives of the ACLS and Guggenheim Fellowship programs, for example, and we're all eager to see more of our colleagues receive these prestigious opportunities.
Please share these upcoming deadlines for three major fellowships with your department.
If you have faculty whose current projects are at an optimal stage for one or more of these awards, please encourage them to consider applying.
Thank you for all you do to support our vibrant community of AHSS faculty.
Sincerely,
Janet Ward, Associate Provost for AHSS Initiatives, and the Provost's Office team
