Visiting Researchers Program – Europe

Managed by the International Research and Experiential Learning office (IREX), the Visiting Researchers Program – Europe (VRP) provides funding for two-week visits by international researchers to the University of Ottawa. The goals of the VRP are threefold:

• To foster partnerships and develop joint projects between the University of Ottawa and international researchers;
• To enrich the research experience of students by giving them the opportunity to meet and work with leading researchers; and
• To increase the visibility of the University of Ottawa within the international research community.

To be eligible to apply, the University of Ottawa applicant must hold a full-time tenure or tenure track position at the University of Ottawa or hold a full-time position at one of the University of Ottawa’s affiliated research institutes. Applicants must invite a researcher from one of the 2024 targeted countries.

The Visiting Researchers Program – Europe is now open. The deadline for applications is May 31, 2024, at 5 pm (EDT).
