The Northrop Frye Centre (NFC) was established in 1988 to honour the contributions of Dr. Frye. Since 2014, the renewed Northrop Frye Centre has been a convivial space for scholars in the human sciences of all generations to come together for stimulating academic exchange. 

With our three fellowship programs, we not only provide financial support for exceptional scholars, but also build a network of mentors, colleagues and friends. 

In addition to these fellowships, we also have a Research Affiliation Program, which encourages Victoria College Fellows to apply for funding for a research assistant. This opportunity in turn allows Vic undergraduate students to learn about research methods and to work closely with a faculty member, all while joining the Northrop Frye Centre community. 

A member of the Consortium of Humanities Centers and Institutes, the Northrop Frye Centre looks forward to expanding its community of scholars and to continue supporting projects that push disciplinary boundaries.

Are you a senior PhD candidate or junior scholar interested in sharing your work in a lunchtime lecture with the NFC community? We’d love to hear from you! Please submit an abstract of ~350 words and a biographical statement of the same length to nfc@utoronto.ca to have your research considered for a lecture. Applications are assessed on a rolling basis; we endeavour to reply to all applications within three weeks of receipt. Modest travel funds may be available.
