About the Institute

The Institute for the Arts and Humanities supports UNC-Chapel Hill faculty at every career stage through programs that:

• Fund individual and collaborative research
• Showcase faculty work
• Develop faculty leaders and teachers
• Facilitate the formation of collaborative, interdisciplinary communities that promote intellectual exchange.

By supporting faculty and their work, the IAH helps strengthen UNC’s teaching, research, leadership and service.

Our model of faculty development holds "conversation" at its core with the goal of promoting a strong interdisciplinary and collaborative intellectual culture at UNC.

Our growing community of Fellows, Friends, advisory boards, event sponsors and others remains focused on making UNC-Chapel Hill the best place in the world for a faculty member to be.
