About

The Center for the Humanities was established at the University of New Hampshire in 1986 to support humanities research by faculty from across the University. The Center hosts and sponsors faculty research fellows, faculty seminars, lecture series, and many public programs. We endeavor to inspire and cultivate innovative research, excellence in teaching, and a commitment to public service as a means of expanding the relevance of the humane disciplines to the University community and to the community.

The Center consists of a small staff, a faculty advisory board, an endowed chair, and resident faculty fellows, all engaged in individual or collaborative research and in the development of innovative projects and public programs.
