Promotion of the Humanities_Professional Development

Uses and Use Restrictions

Grants support Summer Seminars and Institutes, Landmarks of American History and Culture Workshops, and Faculty Humanities Workshops. Awards support direct costs, including salaries, participant stipends, selection costs, travel, and supplies. Projects should engage participants in deepening the knowledge of the subjects they teach and strengthen their capacity to engage students in substantive study of the humanities. Projects that deal solely with pedagogical theory or that are intended to improve writing, speaking, or thinking skills apart from a focus on specific humanities content are not normally supported.
