Funding projects that help push dialogue, critical engagement, and scholarly projects forward is the highest priority of the Institute."
UCHI is committed to supporting humanities (broadly defined) dialogue and research on UConn’s campus and beyond. To that end, UCHI offers funding support for scholarly events on campus, including invited speakers and conferences; and for faculty working groups. We also offer AI seed grants, to support projects exploring humanistic AI. Moreover, as part of UConn's involvement in the Folger Institute Consortium, the Early Modern Studies Working Group supports travel and top-up awards to visit the Folger Shakespeare Library.
