Humanities Connections
Funding Agency:
- National Endowment for the Humanities
The Humanities Connections program seeks to expand the role of the humanities in undergraduate education at two- and four-year institutions. Awards support innovative curricular approaches that foster partnerships among humanities faculty and their counterparts in the social and natural sciences and in pre-service or professional programs (such as business, engineering, health sciences, law, computer science, and other technology-driven fields), in order to encourage and develop new integrative learning opportunities for students.
Humanities Connections projects must include:
- substantive and purposeful integration of the subject matter, perspectives, and pedagogical approaches of two or more disciplines (with a minimum of one in and one outside of the humanities)
- collaboration between faculty from two or more departments or schools at one or more institutions
- experiential learning as an intrinsic part of the proposed curriculum
- long-term institutional support for the proposed curriculum innovation(s)
Maximum award amount up to $35,000 for Planning; up to $150,000 for Implementation
$1,500,000
