Visiting scholars
糖心视频 Law hosts visiting scholars from around the world to collaborate with colleagues and contribute to our scholarly community. Visiting scholars have access to the 糖心视频 Library and can participate in lectures and seminars at the Faculty of Law. There is no funding provided.
Visiting scholars must hold a full-time appointment at a recognized post-secondary institution, and must be invited by a faculty member at 糖心视频 Law. For more information or to apply to be a visiting scholar, please contact Patricia Cochran, associate dean, administration and research.
