IAS Visiting Fellowship Schemes

Visiting fellowships allow the university to create substantial links with researchers and other high-profile figures from around the globe who will enrich the academic life of the University and help us achieve our strategic aims. The IAS visiting fellowships provide a mechanism to achieve this and to support long-lasting collaborations with researchers around the world.

Our visiting fellowship schemes allow our academics to invite researchers who are already established in an academic career, or make connections outside academia, as well as providing a mechanism to host outstanding postdoctoral researchers to facilitate the development of a fellowship application based at Warwick.

We welcome nominations from Warwick colleagues on behalf of academics who are at-risk as a result of the war in Ukraine.

  • The first step is to contact a Warwick colleague about completing the nomination.
  • We are currently able to organise ‘holding places‘ in EU countries where visiting academics could wait for completion of UK visa procedures. Warwick colleagues - please contact IAS.
  • We are also developing opportunities with CaraLink opens in a new window, the Council for At-Risk Academics.
  • We will guide nominators as to the most appropriate scheme (e.g. Cara, Visiting Professor, Fernandes Fellowship)
