Reimagining the Humanities PhD and Reaching New Publics – Simpson Center for the Humanities, University of Washington

Reimagining the Humanities PhD and Reaching New Publics—launched in July 2015 with the support of the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation—has three basic components. First, it develops connections between the University of Washington and two-year colleges in the Seattle District. Second, it offers summer fellowships for doctoral students to pursue public scholarship projects. Finally, it provides support for UW faculty members to develop graduate seminars that incorporate the public humanities.
