The Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) has received a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) to establish the Next Generation Humanities PhD Consortium (Next Gen Consortium), a collaborative learning community for the 28 recent NEH Next Generation PhD grant awardees. These universities, all of which are CGS member institutions, seek to strengthen the career preparation of PhD students in the humanities. CGS will provide intellectual leadership to this group and guide their mission to transform the culture of graduate education.

Partners in the Humanities

CGS’s role in this project broadens our network of partners in the humanities community, builds upon earlier work to strengthen graduate education in the humanities, and strengthens our unique relationship with NEH.  We invite you to follow the Next Gen Consortium’s activities and to participate in the conversation by using the hashtag #NextGenPhD.
