UHC offers two Research Fellowships made possible by endowment funds established in memory of Albert J. Colton, a former UHC board member, and Delmont R. Oswald, UHC's founding director. Fellowships provide support for scholarly exploration of important topics in the humanities and require at least two public programs tailored for and delivered to a general public audience to ensure that the shared stories are available to communities in Utah.
Albert J. Colton Research Fellowship is for Projects of National or International Scope
Delmont R. Oswald Research Fellowship is for Utah Studies—that provide financial support for scholars doing research in the humanities.
