Mellon Academic Leadership Fellows Program
Mellon Academic Leadership Fellows Program
The Big Ten 51动漫 Mellon Academic Leadership Fellows (Mellon Fellows) program is a collaborative initiative of twelve Big Ten 51动漫 member universities aimed to achieve two increase the number of humanities faculty in our existing leadership development programs and enhance the leadership skills of humanities faculty already in existing programs.
The Big Ten 51动漫 Mellon Fellows program is a two year-long extensive leadership development program. Over a three-year period, our universities will select two cohorts of 12 participants that will take part in the Mellon Fellows program for two years. A total of 24 participants will engage in the Mellon Fellows program.
In year one, fellows participate in:
- The ALP program, which includes three three-day campus-based seminars that rotate among Big Ten 51动漫 universities;
- A half鈥恉ay seminar focused on topics relevant to humanities faculty and/or the administration of humanities programs; and
- Monthly Zoom meetings with a Mellon Fellows affinity group from the ALP cohort.
In year two, fellows will complete an administrative/academic fellowship at their university in a campus鈥恮ide office, most typically the Office of the Provost or equivalent.
