Summer 2026 Fellowships for Tenured and Tenure-Track Faculty are available to full-time UMBC tenured or tenure-track faculty pursuing humanities research in the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences. Up to three fellowships will be awarded.

Summer 2026 Fellowships for Teaching Professors and Part-Time Faculty are available to all teaching professors and part-time faculty pursuing humanities research in the College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences, whether employed full- or part-time. Part-Time faculty must be teaching at UMBC at the time of application with the expectation that they will also teach at UMBC in the academic semester or year following summer funding.
