The Townsend Center for the Humanities provides support for faculty, graduate students, undergraduates, and research professionals at the University of California, Berkeley through a range of funding opportunities.
Since its inception, the Center has defined the humanities in its broadest terms as not only the departments officially within the Division of Arts and Humanities, but also the related social sciences and professional schools such as law, journalism, and architecture.
Please note that the Townsend Center does not offer external fellowships or residencies.
