The McGillicuddy Humanities Center will offer awards of up to $1200 towards individual faculty travel grant proposals<\/strong> outside of its October and March faculty grant deadlines (which are usually for larger research support proposals). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note:<\/strong> if a faculty member is planning on submitting to the Oct\/March submission windows, that faculty member should not also submit to this program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2025-2026 MHC Travel Grants are open to 91¸£Àû faculty in the arts and humanities (including tenure-track, tenured, fixed-length and adjunct faculty) who will be either (a) presenting a scholarly refereed\/juried or invited paper\/performance\/exhibit, or (b) serving as organizer or officer of a national or international scholarly conference. Preference will be given to activities that will strengthen the faculty member’s annual review, tenure, promotion, renewal, or post-tenure review case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Process and Deadlines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Requests must be submitted using the MHC Faculty Grant Application Form and MHC Individual Grant Budget Form, linked below.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Requests, including complete budget information, are to be emailed to the MHC Director<\/a> for approval. They should be submitted at least six weeks prior to travel. NOTE: as this is a limited support offering, requests will be approved pending the availability of funding, so early proposals have an advantage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. For any professional travel, an electronic travel request must be submitted via Concur prior to travel and prior to any expenditures being made.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Travel for any particular fiscal year (July 1 to June 30) must be completed by June 30. The MHC will have no obligation to reimburse departments for expenses submitted after July 10.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Expenses are processed through the department or program. The department or program forwards the expense detail to jacob.coultis@maine.edu<\/a> for reimbursement of approved awards.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. All receipts must be submitted in accordance with the most current UMS Travel APL. Meals will be covered in accordance with University policy. For details, see https:\/\/www.maine.edu\/apls\/apl-iv-b\/<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n\t
