Visiting Scholars Program

CSW has revived the Visiting Scholars program to take advantage of scholars who have a permanent academic affiliation elsewhere but who are conducting research and residing temporarily in Los Angeles.  CSW may offer office space or university affiliation to faculty conducting research that pertains to ongoing Center projects and research areas.  The following guidelines distinguish between the services available to international and domestic scholars:

International

CSW can, in certain cases, provide office space to visiting international scholars who have visa sponsorship, financial support, and another campus unit that has provided official visiting scholar affiliation with UCLA.  The Center is unable to sponsor or fund international visiting scholars. 

Domestic

CSW will provide university affiliation for visiting domestic scholars. In certain cases, we can offer visiting scholars office space. No financial support is available.

How to apply

Please submit a letter of application describing your project and how it relates to CSW's current research projects.
