Current Graduate Teaching Fellows

Patricia Crouch, Department of English
Andrew McKevitt, Department of History

CHAT provides Graduate Teaching Fellows with support for their research and offers them the opportunity to teach innovative and interdisciplinary humanities courses. The Center for the Humanities Graduate Teaching Fellowships are configured as 75% directed research or creative activity in the applicant's area of interest and 25% teaching for a course of wide humanistic concern related to that interest, as it is tied to the focus of particular departments or programs. The fellowship is contingent on the pledge of one or more departments or programs to offer the course.

Eligibility
This fellowship is available to select Temple graduate students in good standing who have support from the department(s) or program(s) offering the course. Applicants must work together with the department or program chair or curriculum representative in proposing a course for consideration. Past and current Graduate Teaching Fellows are ineligible to apply for a second fellowship. Graduate Teaching Fellows are expected to participate in the activities of the Center, including biweekly meetings of the Graduate Associates throughout the year.

Application Materials:
Each candidate must submit a letter of application that includes a statement of proposed research or creative activity, a current C.V., a description of the proposed course, and a letter of support from the department or program offering the course. Please also arrange to have a confidential letter of reference by a faculty member familiar with the candidate's research and teaching interests sent directly to Peter Logan, Acting Director of CHAT, 10th floor of Gladfelter Hall.

Applications for the Graduate Teaching Fellowship Program will be accepted until February 11, 2008.
