The National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) awarded a $148,716 Project Grant to Whitman College, a private liberal arts college in Walla Walla, Washington, under the Promotion of the Humanities Teaching and Learning Resources and Curriculum Development program (CFDA 45.162). The two-year grant, effective September 1, 2024, will support the design, refinement, enhancement, and implementation of three key components for Whitman's new interdisciplinary academic concentration in Human-Centered Design: the upper-level capstone course, a community-engaged collaborative practice experience, and a designer-in-residence program. This project aims to expand the intellectual and curricular impact of the human-centered design program by integrating the humanities more productively with non-humanities disciplines at higher conceptual levels.
