About

The Humanities Institute advances scholarship at the University of Toronto by creating new networks - both virtual and physical - for interaction among humanities scholars regardless of their discipline. The Institute serves as a community of research and study and a portal to the humanities at U of T by coordinating ongoing humanities activities and hosting initiatives such as weekly seminars and international conferences. The Institute's activities provide undergraduate and graduate students with opportunities for one-on-one interaction with world-renowned humanists. Through its breadth and inclusiveness, the Institute encourages U of T's full participation as a world leader in the humanities. Our focus on collaborative scholarship across academic boundaries promotes cross-disciplinary interaction among scholars of the humanities and qualitative social sciences, providing further impetus for innovative teaching and research. The Jackman Humanities Institute hosts CHCI-SSHRC postdoctoral fellows whose work is humanities-based and relevant to our annual theme.
