American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) invites applications for the ACLS Digital Innovation Fellowships. This program supports digitally based research projects in all disciplines of the humanities and related social sciences.

It is hoped that projects of successful applicants will help advance digital humanistic scholarship by broadening understanding of its nature and exemplifying the robust infrastructure necessary for creating such works.

ACLS will award up to six Digital Innovation Fellowships in this competition year. Each fellowship carries a stipend of up to $60,000 towards an academic year’s leave and provides for project costs of up to $25,000.

The deadline to apply for the prize is September 24, 2014. To learn more about the award, application requirements and evaluation criteria, visit the award details in the Calendar of Events.
