Public Humanities Graduate Summer Research Fellowship

Public Humanities Graduate Summer Research Fellowship

The Center for the Humanities is pleased to offer a summer fellowship program in public humanities research and practice for summer 2026 for MA/PhD students in the humanities and humanistic social sciences in the School of Arts & Sciences. We will award multiple grants of up to $5,000 each in support of two months of project work by graduate students in the public humanities. The goal of the fellowship is to foster public engagement by funding original writing and public-making activities that enable WashU graduate students to connect with publics beyond the campus.

All grant activities are to take place before September 1, 2026.
