Overview

This summer fellowship opportunity supports continuous full or part-time work on a humanities project for a period of two consecutive months. Funds support recipients’ compensation related to the proposed scholarly research. Time Commitment: The fellowships supports individuals who work between half time and full-time on their projects. You may combine part- and fulltime work, but you must work at least half time and the period of performance must be continuous. If you work full-time on your project, you must forgo teaching and other major activities. If you combine a part-time award with teaching, you must carry a reduced class load during the period of performance. Awards will be reduced to reflect the smaller time commitment when you work part time. Expected Outputs of the Fellowship Include: Archaeological Report; Article; Book; Digital Resource or Publication; Edition; Other Scholarly Resource; Translation; etc. NC Humanities will ask for samples of your outputs.
