The AGHI Faculty Fellowship aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue, inspire creative collaborations, and forge communal bonds. The deadline to apply is March 26.
The core of the fellowship is built around biweekly Friday lunches: convivial gatherings centered on work-in-progress presentations followed by robust discussions. Complementing the vibrant intellectual activities that go on within departments, these gatherings offer humanities faculty—together with IHS students and AGHI Graduate Research Fellows—the opportunity to convey the essence and relevance of their work and receive feedback from colleagues outside their own disciplines and beyond the traditional parameters of classrooms, departments, and institutional hierarchies.
For the academic year 2025–26, up to nine Faculty Fellows, including emeriti, will be selected from the full range of humanistic departments, disciplines, and ranks.
To see our past and current Faculty Fellows and learn more about their research, visit the AGHI directory.
All Faculty Fellows will be expected to attend the Friday lunches, present their work to the group, and find ways to involve students in their projects. For their participation, they will each receive $5,000 in additional research funds, with half unrestricted and half intended to facilitate meaningful graduate and/or undergraduate student engagement. The funds will be made available to active Faculty Fellows at the end of the fall semester.
AGHI Faculty Fellowships will be awarded for interdisciplinary work that especially promises to benefit from and contribute to the intellectual community that emerges from these conversations. Please submit a one- to two-page description of your project, in which you highlight how you intend to involve students.
