Seminar in Experimental Critical Theory (SECT)
University of California Humanities Research Institute (UCHRI), University of California, Irvine
- The Seminar in Experimental Critical Theory (SECT) is an intensive two-week summer program offered by the University of California Humanities Research Institute (UCHRI). SECT convenes distinguished instructors with a group of 40-60 faculty, graduate students, independent scholars, and public intellectuals from both the US and the international community. Neither an introductory survey nor an advanced research seminar, SECT functions as a ‘laboratory’ where participants at all levels of experience can study with scholars at the leading edge of creative theoretical thought.
- SECT's topic changes each year. Announcements for application to participate in the year's seminar are disseminated in the fall; applications are due in early winter.

Residential Research Group Fellowships
University of California Humanities Research Institute (UCHRI), University of California, Irvine
- Residential research groups (RRGs) are at the heart of UCHRI's activities, convening key scholars to work in collaboration on interdisciplinary topics of special significance.

RRGs are in essence teams of researchers, often unknown to each other before residency, and assembled to work on a commonly defined research agenda. They are composed of a range of UC faculty, visiting scholars (including UC postdoctoral scholars), UC doctoral students, and non-UC faculty as resources allow.
- Deadline: mid-December
