Annual Themes
Theme for 2024-2025: Method?
The Humanities Center at the University of Pittsburgh invites applications for its 2024-25 fellowship programs on the theme of “Method?” We invite Pitt colleagues across crafts and disciplines to think together with us about questions of method, including how do we do the work we do?
Theme for 2023-2024: Histories
The Humanities Center at the University of Pittsburgh would like to introduce the 2023-2024 theme of Histories. We invite scholars to reflect with us on questions that interpret the theme of "Histories" in a broad and generous sense that encompasses work from all crafts and disciplines that engages with the past in some way.
Theme for 2022-2023: Breakdown
The Humanities Center at the University of Pittsburgh is thrilled to announce the 2022-23 theme of Breakdown.
Pitt's Humanities Center is a place for people to work together humanistically across disciplinary boundaries. The theme of breakdown aims to bring people together around a series of related processes, to spark new possibilities for research and experimentation. Colleagues applying during 2021-22 for Faculty Fellowships, Graduate Fellowships, and Co-Teaching Fellowships to be taken up in 2022-23 were encouraged to make the connections between this theme and their projects explicit in their applications.
