Mission
Statement
The University of Connecticut Humanities Institute (UCHI), founded
in 2001, seeks to enhance research and creativity in the humanities,
broadly defined. In particular, UCHI promotes the development and
productivity of University of Connecticut faculty through its fellowship,
seminar, and workshop programs, by bringing outside scholars and authors
to Connecticut, and by its support for scholarly conferences and journals.
UCHI promotes student scholarship by the appointment of graduate
and undergraduate fellows, and through advanced courses in humanities
fields. UCHI also sponsors conferences, symposia, and lectures where
the learning of the humanities can inform public issues.
By exploring the full range of humanistic inquiry and methodologies
the UCHI calls attention to the many ways that scholarly advances
in the humanities enrich general understanding of the human condition.
