Learn more about our Seed Grants
The IHR seed grant program is designed to provide support for projects that advance the transdisciplinary, collaborative, and issue-focused mission of the Institute and are sufficiently developed to be competitive for national grants. Seed grant funds are available for transdisciplinary projects for junior and senior humanities faculty members and/or collaborative teams. Funds may be requested for the purpose of conducting research and developing proposals for submission to external funding agencies. It is expected that with a year of support for planning and research, faculty will enhance the competitive nature of their grant proposals. The IHR will support projects that best address the mission of the IHR and that have strong prospects of receiving external funding.

Successful application to the joint IHR/HCTA seed grant will involve faculty from the Herberger College of the Arts in collaboration within and among the arts disciplines and may involve a CLAS humanities scholar(s).
