OVERVIEW
IHC Dissertation Fellowship
The Interdisciplinary Humanities Center offers dissertation fellowships to support UCSB doctoral candidates whose research facilitates dialogue across the traditional disciplinary boundaries within the arts and humanities and/or between the arts and humanities, sciences, and social sciences. In addition to making a significant contribution to current scholarship and research practices, proposed projects should seek to frame their questions, methods, and modes of inquiry with reference to two or more established disciplines/fields of study and/or foster the development of new objects, areas of study, and ways of producing, presenting, and disseminating knowledge. Each fellowship carries a stipend of $7,000, with payment of full resident-level fees and health insurance for one quarter of the academic year.

Graduate Collaborative Awards
The Interdisciplinary Humanities Center (IHC) offers project awards of up to $1,500 to encourage graduate student collaboration beyond the confines of particular departments and disciplines, both within the arts and humanities and between the arts and humanities, social sciences, and sciences. Groups of graduate students from at least two UCSB departments and academic programs are eligible to apply. Eligible projects include conferences, symposia, exhibitions, and performances.

Visual, Performing, and Media Arts Awards
The IHC offers individual and collaborative awards of up to $1,000 for interdisciplinary projects in the visual, performing, and media arts. The competition is open to UCSB faculty and graduate students. The award supports creative work that uses its medium in innovative ways to explore topics of humanistic concern. Projects that engage audiences both within and beyond the university are strongly encouraged.
