Opportunity Summary:
The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Fellowships program is a discretionary grant opportunity designed to support individual scholars carrying out advanced humanities research. The central purpose of the fellowship is to give researchers time and resources to pursue projects that will contribute meaningfully to humanities scholarship, reach broader public audiences, or do both. NEH expects fellowship projects to lead to substantial scholarly or public-facing outcomes, and it is flexible about where a project sits in its lifecycle, meaning proposals can come from early-stage ideas through to work that is well underway.
The kinds of work typically produced under these fellowships include peer-reviewed articles, monographs and books, digital humanities materials, archaeological site reports, translations, critical editions, and other humanities-based scholarly resources. In practice, the program is meant to underwrite focused research and writing (or equivalent scholarly production) rather than institutional programming, and it is specifically aimed at individuals rather than organizations.
This opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 20140501-FA, titled "Fellowships") falls under the Humanities funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 45.160, Promotion of the Humanities: Fellowships and Stipends. The funding instrument is a grant, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to provide additional non-federal funds to qualify.
The award amounts range from a floor of $25,200 to a ceiling of $50,400. Eligibility is limited to individuals, reflecting the program's focus on supporting personal research time and scholarly output rather than institutional projects. The opportunity was posted and created on February 12, 2014, with an application deadline of May 1, 2014 (original and current closing date both listed as May 1, 2014).
