Week day lunches are provided at the Creativity Center. The Creativity Center welcomes applications from all disciplines and areas of interest including the arts, sciences and humanities. The applicant's Project Idea should be new and innovative and have the potential for impact in its field. While there are no specific applicant requirements related to age or academic experience, the program structure requires the maturity to work independently and live co-operatively. Foreign citizens must demonstrate ability to communicate in written and spoken English.
Emphasis is placed on a totally creative learning experience independent of formal education.
It is an informal research approach for the highly motivated. Upon completion of the residency, Fellows will make oral presentations of their projects to a selected audience including Creativity Center Board members, evaluators, Northwood University staff and invited guests. Special certification and recognition will be awarded on this occasion. Notice of accomplishments will be directed to selected media at the Fellows' requests. A cover page should accompany applications.
