Visiting Scholar/Student Researcher Applications are Open!

July 23, 2025

CSHE welcomes applications from scholars and researchers in higher education from all over the world to conduct research related to the Center’s areas of expertise. We provide a scholarly home for Visiting Scholars for periods of one to 12 months. Short-term visits can also be arranged by contacting CSHE. 

Visiting Scholars fall into three categories:

1. Senior Visiting Scholars, who have completed their Ph.D. more than five years ago;

2. Visiting Post-Doctoral Researchers, who have completed their Ph.D. less than five years ago, are either employed at a university or hold a fellowship and are fully funded according to UC Berkeley’s postdoc requirements;

3. Visiting Doctoral Researchers, enrolled students who have advanced to candidacy and are working on a dissertation topic that includes an American higher education component.
