National Humanities Center Fellowship (2022-2023), Canada

The National Humanities Center welcomes fellowship applications from scholars engaged in advanced humanities research regardless of citizenship or national origin. Each year, several scholars from countries other than the United States come to the Center, in North Carolina, as part of the cohort of Fellows and contribute to the rich intellectual and diverse environment of the fellowship program. During their time in residence, Fellows are given the freedom to work on their projects while benefiting from the exceptional services of the Center. The stunning Archie K. Davis building offers private studies, light-filled common areas, and verdant grounds. The Center also provides scholars with exceptional library services, breakfasts, and lunches in the dining area, and administrative support in organizing seminars and study groups. Additional information for international applicants can be found on the National Humanities Center website. The stipend amounts for Fellows are individually determined, according to the needs of the scholars and the Center’s ability to meet them. Fellowships are supported by the Center’s own endowment, private foundation grants, contributions from alumni and friends, and the National Endowment for the Humanities. The Center seeks to provide half salary with the expectation that the Fellow’s home institution covers the remaining salary. The interested candidate needs to prepare a 1,000-word project proposal, short bibliography (up to two pages), curriculum vitae (up to four pages), the one-page tentative outline of the structure of the project (if the project is a book, provide an outline of chapters; otherwise, give an outline of the components of the project and their progress to date) and contact information for three references. Please submit the file directly to the sponsor by the external deadline. Please also submit a copy of the full nomination and OR-5 before the deadline. For more details refer to official notification
