Arts/Social Sciences/Humanities

Mizzou Office of Global and National Fellowships ‘Arts/Social Sciences/Humanities’ interest-area results.

There are numerous fellowship opportunities for Mizzou students. Some of these are larger or better-known awards. Others are smaller or more niche, but equally valuable. We encourage you to view the list of awards on this website, to identify the awards that best match your goals, skills, and interests. If you want to focus on the largest awards, you can view our core fellowships page.

It’s important to know that there is no single fellowship database that is complete. This is merely one among many. Other good databases can be found through the University of Illinois and Arizona State University.

We are always available to help you, too. We believe that fellowships are for anyone who wants to dedicate effort and time to advance their future.
