Deadline: September 1, 2016
NEH Summer Stipends support individuals working full-time on a humanities project at any stage of development by providing funding for two consecutive months of full-time research and writing. Faculty members teaching full-time at colleges and universities must be nominated by their institutions to apply for a summer stipend. At UNC-Chapel Hill, the Institute for the Arts and Humanities Director will appoint faculty to serve as the nominations committee.
To be eligible for a 2017 summer stipend, faculty must submit applications to the Institute for the Arts and Humanities by Thursday, September 1, 2016.
Full information about the stipend and the application materials are available on the NEH website:
