In November, December and January, SPA undergraduate students will be invited to review the proposed faculty projects. The faculty research projects are posted on the website and students are encouraged to determine which project best fits their academic interests.
The Dean’s Office will review the applications including the faculty project descriptions, the student applications and the letters of reference. The Dean’s Office will award faculty student teams. Each team would get $1,000 for the faculty member and $3,000 for the student.
The student will conduct research for the faculty member over the summer up to 20 hours a week. Students will write a research brief of their work, due at the end of September. Student awardees will be encouraged to engage in an independent study research project with their paired faculty member that might result in a published research project for which the student would get formal recognition in the publication. Students would write another research brief of their work.

Humanities Truck Fellowships for 2023-2024
The Humanities Truck is an interdisciplinary platform designed to facilitate collaborative community-based research, scholarship, and exhibitions. These collaborations take time and can take many different forms.

Full-time faculty (including term faculty), staff, advanced Ph.D. students, and MA students engaged in a thesis project at FB体育 are eligible to apply. Truck Fellows are expected to build a collaborative process that involve community partners in each phase of their projects, from research and documentation, to interpretation, and scholarly creation in the form of accessible exhibitions and performances.
Proposed projects need to make a case for the Centrality of the Humanities Truck to the project, articulate a significant Social Justice Impact and Community Relevance, have a clear Emphasis on the Arts and Humanities, and involve Community Collaboration. Throughout the year, Truck Fellows will meet together to reflect upon the effective practices of community-engaged scholarship, and also to share the findings of their own projects. Fellows will receive $10,000 for these year-long projects. There is funding to support six projects.
Applications for Humanities Truck Fellowships for the September 1, 2023- August 31, 2024 season are due 5 pm on July 24, 2023 via email to humanitiestruck@gmail.com.
