Visiting Scholar Positions
The Faculty of Education accepts a limited number of visiting scholars to enrich research collaborations with colleagues across Canada and around the world. If you wish to apply to the Faculty of Education as a visiting scholar, you must first contact one or two faculty members with research interests closely related to yours (see http://www.sfu.ca/education/research/research-interests.html and email them directly with your request. You will need to submit the following documents with your application:
- A letter explaining why you would like to become a visiting scholar at SFU, including the dates and duration of your intended stay
- A current Curriculum Vitae
- A summary of your research interests
Once a faculty member has agreed to be your “sponsor” they will advise the Associate Dean, Academic & Research that they are willing to collaborate with you. After your application has been approved, a formal Letter of Invitation will be issued. (This letter can be used if you are required to obtain a visa for Canada.)
If you have any questions, please contact the Office of the Associate Dean, Academic & Research at adasec@sfu.ca.
Please note: A response from a faculty member may take up to six weeks. The Faculty has limited capacity to accept visiting scholars, and we are not able to offer extensive support.
