Visiting Scholars

The C-MEP welcomes visiting academic staff (including postdocs), which at the University are classified as honorary appointments. Visiting academic staff will be granted access to certain University facilities to further their own research or to cooperate on joint research to the mutual benefit of both themselves and C-MEP.

Please note that an honorary appointment is not a contract of employment and visiting academic staff will not receive any remuneration for work they undertake in their honorary capacity. Read more on the procedures and application process.
