Call for Applications: Undergraduate Public Humanities Exchange

The Center for the Humanities on campus is starting a brand new program for humanities-oriented undergraduates this year. Inspired by their graduate public humanities exchange program (HEX), the Center for the Humanities is now extending this opportunity, support and honor to undergraduates in their new HEX-U Program.

Design and implement an innovative, creative project that draws on your humanities study and scholarship to meet the needs of local community organizations. Receive training, mentoring and funding for your project. There will be a $600 stipend award per project, with up to $2,000 additional funding for project-based expenses. 

WHO CAN APPLY?
  • UW-Madison undergraduate students from all majors/programs
  • Individuals or teams of students with a background in the humanities and an idea for a project
  • Preference given to students in their third year and beyond, and with at least 2 more semesters remaining before completing their degree
INTERESTED?
