About Columbia Global Scholars-in-Residence Program

Columbia Global's Scholars-in-Residence program offers full-time faculty and researchers across Columbia University the opportunity to advance their teaching, research and professional work, while immersing themselves in the academic and cultural environment of a Columbia Global Center.

Projects may focus on:

• The planning, implementation, or dissemination of research
• The development or planning of educational experiences for Columbia University students, such as immersive global learning or travel-study tours
• The planning or convening of events that aim to foster collaboration between Columbia and local, regional, or global partners
• Exploring or deepening partnerships with local institutions, non-profits, or governments, with the goal of advancing collaborative initiatives

• School: Columbia University

• Each scholar-in-residence will spend between two to eight weeks at a Columbia Global Center and receive up to $5,000 to support travel, accommodation and project-related expenses.
