The Cooperative for the Humanities and Social Sciences is pleased to support two or three workshops during the Fall 2022/ Spring 2023 semester, each dedicated to reading, writing, and discussion on a particular theme. These workshops will include faculty members from at least two departments and be open to all interested graduate students. We encourage proposals that include broad interdisciplinary and community participation consistent with the CHSS mission. Each award is up to $1500, which can be spent on such expenses as an honorarium for a visiting speaker, any needed books and materials, and light refreshments at Workshop Series meetings.   

To apply please compile the items below into one file, and submit to teresa.smith@uky.edu by September 9, 2022. Awards will be announced in mid-September.

1. A list of faculty and graduate student participants (participation from at least two different departments is required, and at least one of the faculty members must be from the College of Arts and Sciences) with a 3-5 sentence bio for each person. 
2. A short proposal outlining the Workshop Series' design, purpose and goals: 250-500 words. 
3. A budget proposal to show how up to $1500 will be spent.
