Stanford Humanities Center
The program provides support for Stanford undergraduates writing their honors thesis.
Ten Stanford seniors have been selected by the Stanford Humanities Center to receive a Hume Honors Fellowship for the remainder of the 2022–23 academic year. The SHC annually awards the fellowship to outstanding undergraduates who are majoring in a humanities discipline and writing an honors thesis. Nominated by their faculty advisors, the Hume Honors Fellows each receive a stipend of $1,500 for research project materials and participate in a variety of specially-tailored group activities throughout the year.
In the stimulating scholarly environment of the Center, undergraduate fellows benefit from a year-long association as a cohort, as well as with graduate student and faculty fellows in residence. These intensive intellectual interactions are meant to enable the students to deepen their focus and expose them to advanced research in the humanities.
