The Cogut Institute for the Humanities Research Seminar

This yearlong seminar involves reading and discussing in-progress research by the annual fellows of the Cogut Institute for the Humanities, an interdisciplinary group of faculty, postdoctoral fellows, graduate students, and undergraduates engaged in extended research on a major project or honors thesis. Students read a wide range of works-in-progress, prepare questions and participate in seminar discussions, serve as first questioners for specific sessions assigned to them in advance, and present their own work twice during the year. Students are required to complete both semesters ( HMAN 1000A in the fall and HMAN 1000B in the spring) to receive credit. Admission to the course requires that students have received the Cogut Institute Undergraduate Fellowship for the year in which they enroll.
