GET ENGAGED! JOIN THE ENGAGED HUMANITIES INITIATIVE
The Mellon-funded Engaged Humanities Initiative (EHI) invites students from any major to participate in courses and funded research opportunities that connect the classroom and the community. Students can earn up to $10,000 over 4 years as they learn how the humanities can help us imagine new approaches, and even solutions, to the urgent problems facing the world today. The program offers innovative courses, eye-opening field trips and guest speakers, access to exciting research and internship opportunities, and the ability to form connections that will last a lifetime.
ALL MAJORS WELCOME!
