What it funds

Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.

This limited competition supports institutions that have one or more faculty or staff member(s) who have been awarded an NEH Awards for Faculty at Historically Black Colleges and Universities or an NEH Awards for Faculty at Tribal Colleges and Universities fellowship in federal fiscal year 2024.
This program strengthens the capacity of HBCUs and TCUs to support humanities research on their campuses through funding for replacement instructors. NEH will provide funding at a fixed rate of $2,500 per month (full-time equivalent), up to $30,000. The fixed rate is pro-rated to correspond to the Awards for Faculty fellow’s NEH period of performance and regular institutional load.
