Visiting Scholars

Every year we welcome a number of Visiting Scholars who wish to pursue their own research projects and join in the academic life at the School of Law for periods of a month or longer.

We also offer a Visiting Research Student Scheme for postgraduate research students who are pursuing studies at another institution but who wish to be based in the School of Law during part of their postgraduate degree in order to undertake research as part of their doctoral work.

Visiting Scholars

The Visiting Scholars scheme is for established scholars (including academics, practitioners and judges) who wish to join the School of Law during a period of sabbatical leave from their usual place of work or home institution. Visiting Scholars are provided with IT facilities, library access and, where possible, with office space.

These are non-stipendiary fellowships. Funding may however be available from grant awarding bodies to cover some travel, accommodation and subsistence. Depending on the length of stay a fee may be charged for the visit, but fee waivers can also be applied on request.

Visiting scholars may be charged:

Fees for Visiting Scholars (LAW1000H / 2000H)
Duration of Visit	Fee in £
	2013-2014
Up to two months	660
One semester	1,310
Full year (12 months)	3,920

All applications should be addressed to Hayley O'Hagan on h.ohagan@qmul.ac.uk and should include a CV, a brief outline of the intended research and an indication of date and length of your proposed visit and your reason for wishing to visit the School of Law.
