Established in 2008, the Humanities Institute Book Award is presented for a nonfiction work of humanities-based scholarship. The Book Award celebrates outstanding writers whose contributions to the humanities change the conversation by fostering new directions for their discipline.
The Institute offers support to The College’s Division of Humanities at ASU as well as internal funding recipients in developing and crafting humanities-based projects for external funding applications.
Check out the external funding opportunities and resources listed below to help fuel your research.
HI will make available a limited number of subventions to assist full-time tenured and tenure-track ASU humanities faculty with subvention costs for single-authored and co-authored works in any language, including creative works (novels, books of essays or poetry).
These funds are designed to support those whose publishers make an explicit requirement of subvention funding. Although subventions generally provide support for monographs, requests for edited volumes will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
The Humanities Institute (HI) Fellows program advances the scholarly writing and research of humanities faculty. The program includes two course releases, research funding, peer writing groups, and development of a cross- humanities faculty community. Additionally, the program assists faculty in grant writing and writing for a broad public.
The seed grant program supports humanities-based projects that engage with social challenges in the past, present or future. Successful projects employ humanities or creative interdisciplinary methodologies.
