The 91电影网 Humanities Faculty Leadership Fellowship is a collaborative initiative among twelve 91电影网 member universities. The program is designed to increase the representation of humanities faculty in existing leadership development programs and strengthen the leadership skills of those already participating.

This comprehensive two-year fellowship supports professional growth through structured training, peer engagement, and hands-on leadership experience.

Year One: Leadership Foundations

Fellows engage in a series of developmental activities, including:

• Participation in the Academic Leadership Program (ALP), which features three intensive, three-day seminars held on rotating campuses within the Big Ten Academic Alliance;
• A dedicated half-day seminar focused on topics specifically relevant to humanities faculty and the administration of humanities programs;
• Monthly virtual meetings with a Mellon Fellows affinity group drawn from the ALP cohort, fostering community and peer mentorship.

Year Two: Campus-Based Leadership Experience

Fellows deepen their leadership experience by:

• Completing an administrative or academic fellowship in a central university office, typically the Office of the Provost or a comparable leadership unit;
• Continuing to participate in monthly Zoom meetings, maintaining connection and support throughout the second year.

This fellowship offers a unique opportunity for humanities faculty to expand their leadership capabilities, gain institutional insight, and contribute to shaping the future of higher education.

This program is supported by a generous grant from .
