This funding supports collaborative research projects, events, and conferences that unite faculty from diverse departments and disciplines within the humanities and humanistic social sciences. Activities include summer research, working conferences, intellectual community-building events, lecture series, and microseminars. Awards up to $25,000 encourage innovative scholarship resulting in co-authored publications, exhibitions, podcasts, and presentations. Awardees present outcomes at an annual research showcase.
Tenure-track and teaching-track faculty in humanities and humanistic social sciences at University of Washington campuses may apply as principal investigators. Teams of two to three faculty from different disciplines are encouraged. Graduate students and others may participate but cannot lead.
