NZ-UK Link Foundation Visiting Professorship
21 December 2009
The NZ-UK Link Foundation's Visiting Professorship programme enables a high-calibre New Zealand professor to spend three months in the University of London's School of Advanced Study with access to extensive research facilities and the appropriate academic specialists as required.
High-calibre candidates are sought, whose research interests contribute to an understanding and appreciation of some important aspect of the contemporary relationship between New Zealand and the UK. Applicants should be senior academics, working at a Professorship level and with a valid passport.
While the Visiting Professorship might represent numerous academic disciplines - from history to environmental science, from economics to social policy, from political science to trade and so on - for this inaugural Fellowship in 2010, the Foundation is particularly interested in applicants whose areas of interest are in one of the following fields:
- The economic relationship, such as trade/financial institutions (governance and regulation/investment)
- Immigration/workforce mobility
- Participative democracy, including electoral systems
The Foundation has been helped in developing the programme by discussions with New Zealander, Sir Graeme Davies, Vice-Chancellor of the University of London (pictured).

Applications close on 28 February 2010 and should be sent to: The Chair, NZ-UK Link Foundation, c/- NZ House, Haymarket, London, SW1Y 4TQ, UK or can be emailed.
