About CHCI
Established in 1988, the Consortium of Humanities Centers and Institutes serves as a site for the discussion of issues germane to the fostering of crossdisciplinary activity and as a network for the circulation of information and the sharing of resources. It has a membership of over one hundred and fifty centers and institutes that are remarkably diverse in size and scope and are located in the United States, Australia, Canada, Finland, Taiwan, Ireland, Sri Lanka, the United Kingdom, and other countries.

CHCI members are encouraged to meet and confer with their peers and colleagus in an annual meeting hosted by one of CHCI's member institutions. (See "Annual Meeting.") Washington University in Saint Louis, Missouri, will host the gathering The Humanities in an Age of Science on March 13-14, 2008.

The CHCI Membership Directory Search located on this site contains information on all of the centers and institutes that are members, including the kinds of conferences that are sponsored, fellowships available, and other activities.
