Description
Ohio State University’s Global Arts + Humanities Cross-Disciplinary Research Exchange supports 15 advanced undergraduate students through the Undergraduate Fellows Program for the 2027–28 academic year. The program supports thesis projects, independent-study courses, and other in-depth arts and humanities research, including creative and performance projects. It is designed to strengthen fellows’ existing work rather than create additional work.
Fellows develop core research skills through shared research experiences, cross-disciplinary peer exchange, and individual guidance from University Libraries faculty or other library experts. They gain experience developing research proposals and presentations and learn about opportunities to present and publish their work. Alignment with the Society of Fellows’ annual theme, (Re)formations, is optional; fellows with related projects may participate in Society of Fellows programming.
