CALL FOR APPLICATIONS - 2023 Honors College Virginia Ball Creative Inquiry Fellows
Applications due on Friday, April 7, 2023 by 5:00pm
Since its launch in 2000, Ball State's Virginia Ball Center for Creative Inquiry has served as a site for semester-long student-driven projects that transcend disciplinary boundaries. Fall 2023 marks the launch of a new partnership offering the hallmark VBC experiences to all undergraduates under the umbrella of Ball State's celebrated Honors College. We are please to announce that we are now accepting applications for two inaugural Creative Inquiry Faculty Fellows, one in Fine Arts/Humanities/Design, and one in Natural/Social Sciences.
Each Creative Inquiry Fellow will receive a $2,000 stipend to develop and teach a one credit interdisciplinary Early Start experience (summer 2023) and three credit interdisciplinary Tier 2 UCC course in a proposed topic (spring 2024). The Fellowship will culminate in a five week summer experience, open to all Ball State undergraduates, for which the Fellow will receive project support and a $6,000 budget.
Applications are due on Friday, April 7, 2023 at 5:00pm. To apply, interested faculty should submit a cover letter articulating project ideas and interest in working across disciplines, and a CV. Applications and questions may be directed to Jennifer Blackmer, Creative Inquiry Director, at jsblackmer@bsu.edu.
