DIRECT AN NEH SUMMER PROGRAM IN 2017

The National Endowment for the Humanities is accepting applications for grants to direct a summer program for college faculty or schoolteachers on a humanities topic of your expertise.

For examples, see this year’s list of NEH summer programs: www.neh.gov/divisions/education/summer-programs.

Why direct an NEH summer program?

• Directors influence their fields of expertise through intense collegial study.
• Directors strengthen teaching and research at the undergraduate and K-12 levels.
• Directors join a distinguished roster of NEH summer program leaders and bring distinction to their home institutions.
• Directors choose participants from across the country.
• Directors receive compensation (starting at $12,500) based on the duration of the program.
