HPG Summer '23 Humanities Labs Application Info Session

The Mellon Humanities for the Public Good Initiative invites applications from UI faculty and partners to design a Humanities Lab. We define a “Lab” as an applied, experiential approach to teaching and learning at the graduate level that offers graduate students meaningful ways to connect advanced studies in the humanities with both a social challenge and skills valued in multiple career settings. The Lab grant will be awarded to one or more faculty members from humanities or humanities-adjacent departments and their collaborators who wish to host a Humanities Lab graduate course in 2023-2024 or 2024-2025. Funding is available to support planning teams and to support departments.

If you’re interested in applying, please read the information on the HPG website and/or join Obermann Center Director Teresa Mangum at a virtual information session on Tuesday, Dec. 13, 2022 from 11 a.m. to noon. We’ll schedule a second info session in late January.

Free and open to all.
