Each year, the University Bordeaux Montaigne launches a programme of Visiting Professors, open to researchers from non-French Universities. This program, dedicated to research and teaching, is open to all candidates whose scientific production is related to the disciplines hosted by the University Bordeaux Montaigne.
11 Visiting Professors will be fully part of the University Bordeaux Montaigne community for a period of one month in 2023. They are expected to dedicate most of their time to their ongoing research, possibly in collaboration with colleagues of the UBM. They will share their work with faculty and students of the UBM during two events, both directly related to their research project, at the beginning and at the end of their stay. They will also provide other activities addressed to the UBM community and related to their research projects, which will be defined in consultation with their UBM referee. They are also strongly encouraged to meet and exchange with UBM faculty members who work in their field, especially to consider future collaborations.
Visiting scholars will provide a service consisting of the following elements:
It is expected that Visiting Professors will be in Bordeaux for the entire period of their stay; any absence must be notified in advance to their referee and authorized by the direction of their Research Unit and the International Office. The stays will take place during the calendar year 2023, except during the vacation periods
