Visiting Scholars Scheme

Academic staff based at other universities can apply to the Visiting Scholars Scheme for short visits to the Centre

The School of History, Classics and Archaeology runs a Visiting Scholars Scheme. 

Academics, scholars and researchers may apply to visit the School for a period of 1 to 12 months, whether for a short research visit or for an extended stay during sabbatical leave from their own universities or employers. The applicant should have a specific research reason to be in Edinburgh, either because of materials available in the University library or elsewhere in the city, or because of a research link with a current member of the School’s staff.

If the applicant wishes to work with the Centre, this should be clearly stated in the application form.
