NEH Summer Stipend Info Session

Friday, August 21, 2020 - 1:00 PM

Join us for an info session to discuss applying for an NEH Summer Stipend (funding guidelines here, UMD internal competition for tenure-track nominees here). The session will cover key elements of the NEH application and briefly introduce users to UMD's Infoready portal.

These stipends award $6,000 for two consecutive months of full-time work in Summer 2021. PTK faculty can apply directly via Grants.gov for NEH's Sept. 23 deadline. TTK faculty must compete internally via Infoready limited submission by Sept. 4 to be selected as one of UMD's two nominees.

The info session will take place on Friday, Aug. 21, at 1pm. RSVP to Amanda Dykema (adykema@umd.edu) with any questions in advance and to receive the zoom login info.

Ahead of the meeting, participants will be asked to look at:

  • The Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), which details project/faculty eligibility, application components, and review criteria.
  • For TTK faculty who will need to apply to be selected as one of two university nominees, UMD's InfoReady application portal for this competition. (PTK faculty can apply directly to NEH without nomination.)
  • Sample funded application narratives available here.
