Requirements
- Applicants must be current faculty members of either Columbia University or Ecole Polytechnique. For Columbia faculty members, the visiting professorship program is open to all full-time Columbia University tenure-track and tenured faculty, as well as Professors of Professional Practice.
- When applicable, Alliance Visiting Professors continue to receive their salary from their home institution. In addition to their salary an additional compensation for accommodations and living expenses is paid to help cover the costs of the visit. The host university is not responsible for accommodation arrangements for the visiting faculty. The additional compensation varies according to the seniority of the faculty member. Please note that, for visiting professors going to France, French law does not allow the payment of an additional compensation to faculty members over the age of 65.
- Alliance Short-Term Visiting Professors are expected to run one graduate seminar and deliver one public lecture in English at the host institution. They will also have the opportunity to engage with the network of the Columbia Global Center in Paris (CGC Paris), taking part in academic events and conferences organized by CGC Paris and participating in its podcast series.
