Every other year, the Institute for Humanities Research (IHR) Book Award honors a book of academic nonfiction by an Arizona State University humanities faculty member on any campus. To be eligible, books must be written in English, published in 2019 or 2020, and written or co-written by a tenured or tenure-track, full-time ASU faculty member whose work reflects the finest contemporary humanities-based scholarship on any topic.
The seed grant program is designed to provide support for projects that advance the IHR’s mission of fostering research that addresses or explores significant social challenges in the past, present and future, employing humanities or interdisciplinary methodologies.
The Institute supports projects that demonstrate intellectual merit, potential impact on scholarship and strong prospects of receiving external funding. Seed grants fund 12 months of work for ASU humanities faculty and staff at two levels: individual (up to $7,000) and team (up to $12,000).
The Dissertation Fellowship (DF) programs offers up to ten $25,000 grants to support the final year of Ph.D. or Th.D. dissertation writing. Preference given to students engaged in research pertaining to North American Christianity, especially projects related to Institute mission priorities.
