The Good Family Visiting Faculty Research Fellowship was established to encourage research in a wide variety of fields, reinforcing the traditional and anticipated research strengths of Queen’s University by inviting an outstanding scholar, who is currently on sabbatical from their home institution, to join Queen’s University for a term of up to one year in one of the following areas: Biology, Economics, Environmental Studies, History, Physical Health Education, Political Studies, Psychology or Sociology.
Up to $30K per year will be available to support a research stipend of a visiting scholar. The income could fund a 6 month appointment every year, a one year appointment every 2 years, or an exceptional scholar once every three years.
