Visiting Scholars

The East Asian Studies Center welcomes visiting East Asian Scholars with research interests that reinforce our goal of building networks of knowledge, practice, resources, and discovery that enhance understanding of East Asia locally, regionally, and nationally.

During their stay at Indiana University, EASC requests visiting scholars give one or two public lectures as part of our East Asian Studies Center Friday Colloquium Series.

As host institution, EASC:

•Facilitates visiting scholars’ entry into the United States.
•Reviews, verifies, and reports research progress to sponsors in visiting scholars’ home countries.
•Supports visiting scholars’ access to University IDs and Library cards, insuring their ability to conduct research and use related university resources.

Researchers of various disciplines are supported through our visiting scholars program to promote a wide range of international research and collaboration at Indiana University.

Please feel free to send an email to both Laura Judson at ljjudson@iu.edu and Morten Oxenboell at mortoxen@indiana.edu should you have any questions regarding the EASC visiting scholar program.
