Since 1957, more than 9,200 scholars have held ACLS fellowships and grants. ACLS fellowships and grants are awarded to individual scholars for excellence in research in the humanities and related social sciences. The peer-review process used to select ACLS Fellows enables distinguished scholars to reach broad consensus on standards of excellence in humanities research.

In 2011, awards totaling nearly $15 million were made to 350 scholars worldwide. Select a program from the listings below to view new and recent awardees, project descriptions, and recipient profiles for that program.
