Description
The Franco Institute Fellowships & Grants at the University of Notre Dame, administered by the Nancy O'Neill Franzic and Dr. William J. Franzic Institute for Arts & Humanities, offer a comprehensive portfolio of internal funding opportunities. These programs are designed to advance faculty research, creative projects, international collaborations, professional development, scholarly publication, and events within the arts, humanities, and social sciences. Funding is prioritized for new projects or initiatives that have not previously received significant Franco Institute support, and most opportunities are targeted toward regular faculty (especially those in the College of Arts & Letters).
