NEH Awards for Faculty at Tribal Colleges and Universities

The National Endowment for the Humanities, a federal agency in Washington, D.C., administers a fellowships program that provides financial support for faculty at Tribal Colleges and Universities who wish to pursue scholarly research projects in the humanities.

The 2013 application deadline is April 16, for projects beginning in 2014 and 2015. Staff will comment on application drafts received by Sunday, March 17.

Projects should involve advanced research that is of value to scholars, general audiences, or students in the humanities. The awards support the equivalent of six to twelve months of full-time work and carry a stipend of $4,200 per month. Recipients usually produce articles, monographs, books, digital materials, archaeological site reports, translations, editions, or other scholarly tools. Proposals for research leading to the improvement of an existing undergraduate course are also eligible.
