Opportunity Summary:
The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) Fellowships program is a discretionary grant opportunity designed to support individual scholars undertaking advanced humanities research. The intent is to fund projects that will ultimately benefit humanities specialists, the broader public, or both. NEH fellowships are flexible in terms of where a project falls in its lifecycle, meaning applicants can propose work that is in early development, midstream, or approaching completion, as long as the research plan and final outcomes are clearly articulated and significant to the humanities.
Fellowship recipients are typically expected to produce substantial scholarly or public-facing humanities outputs. Common deliverables include peer-reviewed articles, monographs and books, digital humanities projects and online scholarly resources, archaeological site reports, as well as translations, critical editions, or other materials that expand access to humanities knowledge. The program focuses on enabling sustained time for research, writing, analysis, fieldwork, or the creation of scholarly tools and resources, depending on the nature of the project.
This opportunity is aimed specifically at individuals rather than institutions. The funding opportunity number is 20150430-FA, and it falls under CFDA 45.160 (Promotion of the Humanities: Fellowships and Stipends). There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement, which means applicants are not required to contribute additional funds to receive an award. Awards range from a floor of $25,200 to a ceiling of $50,400, reflecting different potential fellowship periods or support levels as defined in the full program guidelines.
The original posted date for this announcement was February 18, 2015, and the application deadline (both original and current closing date) was April 30, 2015.
