Graduate Working Group

Medicine & Humanities
The Andrew Vincent White and Florence Wales White Scholarship provides up to $20,000 for UC graduate students engaged in interdisciplinary humanistic research on medicine, broadly defined. UCHRI welcomes projects that approach problems of health, healing, pain, bodies, medicines, afflictions, and treatments in unexpected and creative ways. Deadline: February 22.
Institutional Failure as Global Leadership
This new program for humanities graduate students explores case-based instances of contemporary leadership "models" and creative practices in the face of institutional standardization, bureaucratization, even failure. While interested in exploring questions around leadership-What is it? What isn't it? Why does it matter in a world where we're seemingly left to deal with crises individually?-this seminar will begin by examining leadership, institutional standardization, and failure by taking education as an exemplary case. Deadline: April 18.
PhD Research Internship
The PhD Research Internship Program will support one UC graduate student to work on UCHRI's systemwide programs for the summer, engaging in program development and evaluation and scholarly communications. Deadline: April 18.
