NEH Summer 2018 Funding Opportunities

Two current funding opportunities, Humanities Initiatives at Presidentially-Designated Institutions and Humanities Initiatives at Community Colleges, will award up to $100,000 for successful projects. 

Institutions eligible to apply to the Humanities Initiatives program may submit the same application to both programs, however they may accept only one offer/award. 


Humanities Initiatives

Humanities Initiatives at Presidentially Designated Institutions

Application Closing Date: July 19, 2018

These awards help strengthen the teaching and study of the humanities in subjects such as history, philosophy, literature, religion, interpretation of the arts, and composition and writing skills. Activities supported by Humanities Initiatives include developing or substantially enhancing bridge programs, creating or revising courses, and infusing humanities learning into professional training.

These grants serve:

·        Humanities Initiatives at Hispanic-Serving Institutions

·        Humanities Initiatives at Historically Black Colleges and Universities

·        Humanities Initiatives at Tribal Colleges and Universities

Projects need not be related to the cultural identity of the applicant institution. Applicants are encouraged to draw on the knowledge of outside scholars who would contribute expertise and fresh insights to the project.


Humanities Initiatives at Community Colleges

Humanities Initiatives at Community Colleges

Application Closing Date: July 19, 2018

Designed to support community colleges’ commitment to educating students on a variety of educational and career paths, Humanities Initiatives at Community Colleges funds curricular and faculty development projects that help strengthen humanities and/or incorporate humanistic approaches in fields outside the humanities.
