About: The Glasscock Center encourages interdisciplinary research and scholarship by providing up to $1,500 in annually renewable support to self-constituted groups of faculty and students engaged in exploration of thematically related research questions in the humanities. These groups may designate themselves working groups, research clusters, reading groups, study seminars, or the like. Participants share the goal of stimulating intellectual exchange through discussion, writing, viewing, reading, and other activities that further their inquiries into common scholarly concerns. The Center makes space available for the meetings of these groups. Information about existing humanities working groups can be found here. Eligibility: The Glasscock Center requires that working groups make annual public calls for membership to the university community and assists with these calls. Deadlines: The Center considers applications for Working Group recognition throughout the year. Please click here for the PDF application form for the Humanities Working Group grant program |
