How To Become A Faculty Fellow

Are you a CPP faculty member, lecturer or tenure-track, currently engaged in Digital Humanities scholarly work with students? Faculty Fellowships aim to extend CPP’s teacher-scholar model into DH. Fellowships will provide funding that may be used for a course release (3 WTUs) for one semester or as equivalent Summer research funding.  Learn more on the current Faculty Fellows  as well.

Priority will be given to projects centered on student success that will connect faculty and student research to the CPP community (and beyond).
