Collaboration and connections with a wide range of scholars from across the globe and nation are vital to advancing the research and education missions of the University. For this reason, FSU established the Visiting Scholar Program to provide opportunities for FSU faculty members to invite unpaid researchers from the U.S. and around the world to FSU for more than 14 days to participate in collaborative research. There is no application process to become a Visiting Scholar. The invitation process is initiated by the FSU faculty member.
If your FSU academic department wishes to employ an international employee who requires a J-1 visa to enter the U.S., go to the Temporary Scholar Employee page. If your FSU academic department is hiring a permanent full-time international employee needing sponsorship for a work visa, please contact Leslie Crosdale at lcrosdale.fsu.edu for more information.
