The Fox Center for Humanistic Inquiry will award up to twelve Undergraduate Fellowships to support students completing honors projects in a Humanities or Humanistic Social Science field. The goal of these Fellowships is to support undergraduates as they complete their theses, introduce them to the life of the Humanities, and provide a venue for interdisciplinary interchange, mentorship, and conference-style presentation. The Center’s theme for 2024–25 is Democracy: Past, Present, Future. We especially encourage projects that engage with the theme.
