The Charles Phelps Taft Research Center ( http://www.artsci.uc.edu/taft/ ) provides competitive research support for tenure-track faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate students in 12 departments within the McMicken College of Arts and Sciences. Our mission is to promote scholarly research through fellowships and awards; foster critical conversations across disciplines; create and sustain an intellectual community for the exchange of ideas; and support lectures, conferences, seminars, study groups, and symposia in the Taft disciplines. Above all, we hope to fulfill and further Annie Sinton Taft's own vision of sustaining a "concentration of interest in the development of ideas."
