Signature Course Fellowships

Made possible by a major grant from the John Templeton Foundation and seed funding from Paul J. Bonitatibus '71, the Signature Course Fellowship funds and supports faculty who have a vision for translating research on human flourishing into large-scale, public-facing, pedagogically innovative courses that have the potential to become a cornerstone in their university’s curriculum.

The Signature Course Fellowship Program aims to gather a cohort of scholars from across disciplines and higher education who are ready to build and launch their own signature course addressing a pressing question for human flourishing.

During the 2024-2025 academic year, the program is funding 18 faculty members for residential sabbaticals to pursue their projects: two during the Fall 2024 semester, three during the Spring 2025 semester, and 10 during an intensive, one-month program in the summer of 2025.
